Can Autodesk Inventor help in generating a path for robotic arm movement? Like it is done in this video -Video

I was thinking more of going the other way - driving an Inventor assembly robot with Excel to simulate the robot motion in Inventor and calculate forces, velocities and so on...
I have never worked with programming a robot. Generating a path (Trace) in Inventor is pretty easy, but I don't know how to convert it to code that is appropriate for a robot control software.
I took a look at the output code from Inventor *.iaa and it is not ASCII text, so I don't know if it is useable in any way.
It appears from the YouTube video that it is certainly doable, but not OOTB Inventor functionality. Would require some coding.
