There are many FSM frameworks around, and AFAIK there are few (or even none ?) that provide great graphic tools (including graphical edition !!). The key of success is around those tools. I'm currently using smach because : _ they provide a graphical "debugger" _ the user code can be very very light which allow non-informatician to write code. I'm desesperatly looking for a graphical tool to generate my state machines. If you achieve this, I would be glad to be a beta tester. 2013/12/17 Edwards, Shaun M. > Yakir, This looks pretty cool. In the past I have used SMACH[1] for my state machines. It works well but lacks event based state transitions. In particular I want to use service calls to change certain states. Is this something your library would support?

Currently we have implemented FSM's, HSM's and Behaviour trees. The documentation is still sparse, and not all the code is up, but we think it's already amazing. Here are some examples [3] We would be glad to collaborate with anyone interested (academy, research or commercial), welcome implementation of new models , comments and feedback.
