Using a Java input mask on a robot - What is the best way to implement it?

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on a project in which I would like to use a custom input mask written in Java on a robot. However, I am unsure how I can best implement this.
Here are a few points about the project:

  1. The input mask is developed entirely in Java and currently runs on a desktop PC
  2. The robot is a UR10e

Now to my questions:

  1. does it make sense to integrate the Java input mask via a URCap, or are there better approaches?

  2. Are there alternative methods of integrating the Java input screen on the UR10e that I should consider?

  3. Does anyone have experience or best practices with similar projects they could share?

Here is a picture of the input mask:

I don’t know what exactly the application is, but yeah I would just put in a URCAP. Maybe the Installation node.
