BridenBot

One of BridenBot's most useful features is the ability to record actions and then play them back over and over again.  You can record a single action or create a loop to record multiple actions in a row.   To set up a recording loop add the following instructions to your Bridenstructions file. After starting BridenBot you will see the record action drop down menu appear.  Use the dropdown menu to pick an action from the list that you would like to record.  For example, if you'd like to record yourself clicking on a certain point on the screen you'd select LCLICK(?,?) then click the OK button.  After clicking the OK button the message below will appear. Think for a moment where on your screen you would like this action to take place.  Click the OK button and then quickly move your mouse cursor to the right spot.  Wait for the action to take place and for the record action menu to reappear.  Continue to record as many actions as you like by re...

Another one of BridenBot's most useful features is the ability to sense and react to what is visible on the computer screen.  Use CHECK to examine the pixel color under the mouse cursor.  If the color values of the pixel match the values provided in parenthesis then BridenBot will move on to the next step.  If the values do not match then BridenBot will reset itself to a designated SET point. In this example the mouse cursor will move to the point (912,618), wait ten seconds and then check for a certain color at that point.  If BridenBot sees the right color then it will press the left mouse button.  If BridenBot does not see the color then it will jump back to SET(P1), wait ten more seconds and then check again.  This set up is helpful if you are trying to click a button on a webpage but are not sure how long it will take for the button to appear.  With CHECK BridenBot will check every ten seconds for the button and then click on it as soon as it app...

My name is Anthony Bridenbaugh and this past year I've immersed myself deeply in Robotic Process Automation technology.  I've found this particular technology to be so fascinating and such a game changer for the automation of routine office work that I've taken the opportunity to develop my own RPA application.  Although this project took away all of my spare time for several months I'm excited to say that I'll never be burdened by a boring stack of busy work ever again! Why use Robotic Process Automation? Robotic Process Automation is the ultimate way to quickly, easily and cheaply automate repetitive office work.  Think about how much time we spend doing routine computer tasks that involve thoughtless and endless repetition.  Sure there are plenty of great tools available that can help with all types of back office operations.  These tools are awesome but they still require repetitive human interaction and don't always offer flexible or affordable customiz...
