ARC Pro (recommended)
The Pro edition unlocks all ARC features. It allows you to create mobile apps, use unlimited speech recognition commands, access cloud storage, use high-resolution cameras for object detection, and more. This is the most popular installation of ARC because it also receives the latest updates and bug fixes.
ARC Free
Use ARC Free to try ARC with limitations.
ARC Runtime (Free)
The runtime edition allows loading any robot apps, whether created by free or Pro edition. This edition has no limitations to the number of robot skills, speech recognition, etc. This edition is meant to run existing robot applications created for your robot. One noticeable difference with this edition is the lack of Add Control and Config buttons. Robot skills that require 3rd-party subscriptions or cloud services not included, such as Bing Speech Recognition, Cloud Storage, Azure Text To Speech, Cognitive Vision Recognition, etc...
ARC Mobile (Android & iOS)
The mobile edition is no longer supported for updates and bug fixes. We recommend using the new Remote UI feature. The Mobile edition of ARC was created for on-the-go remote control of robots and is, therefore, limited in functionality. It does not contain the ability to load third-party robot skills, and many built-in skills are unavailable. Review the Interface Builder robot skill manual to see what skills are available.
