Webots is a free and open-source 3D robot simulator used in industry, education and research.. The Webots project started in 1996, initially developed by Dr. Olivier Michel at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland and then from 1998 by Cyberbotics Ltd. as a proprietary licensed software.
A robotics simulator is a simulator used to create an application for a physical robot without depending on the physical machine, thus saving cost and time. In some case, such applications can be transferred onto a physical robot (or rebuilt) without modification.
The iRobot Create and a simulator developed in MATLAB are used in the Autonomous Mobile Robots course at Cornell University. [19] For US$500, hacker Johnny Chung Lee created a Telepresence robot using the iRobot Create and a netbook. [20] Combining the iRobot Create with an Xbox Kinect, student Philipp Robbel created a 3D mapping robot. [21]
Gazebo is an open-source 2D/3D robotics simulator that began development in 2002. In 2017, development forked into two versions, known as "Gazebo", the original monolithic architecture, and "Ignition", which had moved to become a modernized collection of loosely coupled libraries.
Simbad robot simulator is an open-source cross-platform software simulator used to develop robotics and artificial intelligence applications. [1] The Simbad project started in 2005, initially developed by Dr. Louis Hugues and is widely used for educational purposes. [ 2 ]
RoboDK software is the extended commercial version of RoKiSim [6] and is designed to bring powerful robotics simulation and programming capabilities to companies large and small and to coders and non-coders alike. At launch, the RoboDK library supported 200 robots from more than 20 robot manufacturers.
These include the Player networked robotics server, and the Stage 2D robot simulation environment. The project was founded in 2000 by Brian Gerkey, Richard Vaughan and Andrew Howard at the University of Southern California at Los Angeles, and is widely used in robotics research and education .
The Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) robot simulator developed by the European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company (EADS) for training purposes. EADS uses Vortex to model the physical behaviour of the robot as it maneuvers in its simulated environment, interacting with other objects while processing user commands.
