Micro-Robotics has made a number of improvements to Venom-SC, the object-oriented, control-system language designed to be used with the company's VM-1 credit-card-sized embedded control computer. All VM-1 users can download this new, more powerful version of Venom-SC free from the Micro-Robotics' website. Entirely new objects include: a touch screen driver object that supports "virtual keys" on a graphics LCD; Xmodem for industry-standard error-correcting file transfers; CRC and random number generators; and a memory "garbage collector" to aid debugging and system design.

There have also been enhancements to existing objects: multiple device support for the Microwire/SPI driver; and more features on the protocol analyser and number reader objects.

These developments further increase the power and ease-of-use of Venom-SC and allow engineers to create a working control system very quickly with the minimum of development time and cost.
