Hossbotics
It maybe a little confusing with the name of this site being hossbotics.com (just needed a domain name and couldn't think of anything better at the moment), but Hossbotics is a robots engine I'm writing from scratch for running Lazlo. It is entirley written in C# and is currently based on .NET v3.5, although I may move to v4.0 if a good reason comes up. Work on it is *very* slow, it's just a hobby, something for fun in my spare time. :)
The app is a GUI app that displays live logging (same content is written to a file as well), monitoring of all sensors and systems, as well as a place for settings. Settings are stored in an app.config file.
I do have ideas of trying to make it generic so that it could be used on other robots and possibly even other people on their robots. But thats a long term goal that will most likely never see fruition. More likely, it might be organized well enough that someone could take the source code and use it as a starting point and customize to suit their needs.
I don't bother posting the source code now as the app is in very early stages so there is a lot of code churn, refactoring, lack of comments, hacks, etc. But if for some reason you really want it, just contact me.
