Each object/model can be individually controlled via child scripts, writing plugins, ROS node, and external client application with a remote API. It offers a distributed control framework solution with advanced functionalities for testing and debugging complex robotic systems. CoppeliaSimĬoppeliaSim (formerly called V-REP) was first released in 2010 and is closed-source with a free educational license. It uses the ODE (Open Dynamics Engine) physics engine.įinally, Webots proposes an exhaustive documentation (through tutorials, examples or user guide) and benefits from an active community.

In addition, the simulator provides a wide range of existing robots, components such as actuators, sensors, objects, furniture or materials… It also includes a compiler (C++) to test and control algorithms but the software is versatile with open-sources APIs, which are very useful for those who are familiar with a specific programming language (Python, Java, Matlab or ROS) or for the use of a specific library (i.e. Its simple and friendly interface enables to add and remove objects, robots, and evaluating them in a scenario, with short development time. It provides a complete development environment (indoor or outdoor) for modeling, programming and simulating robots and can be interfaced with third-party applications through TCP/IP. Webots robot simulator was developed at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in 1996 that can be downloaded from Cyberbotics company website. Besides a module designed to calibrate robot is available, increasing accuracy of the simulation. One of the main interests of the software is the possibility to export directly programs to the actual robot thanks to RoboDK Post Processors. It is then easy to visualize root behavior for a specific movement. It offers an intuitive interface that do not require high programming skills.

RoboDK is an offline programming and simulation software mainly used for industrial robots. Many experts consider it as the best robotic simulator. Finally, robots, sensors and environment can be controlled through custom plugins. Besides the large range of robots, any robot can be imported using SDF format. The software can also generate sensor data, from different imported sensors or cameras. Thanks to OGRE (Object-oriented Graphics Rendering Engine), the software provides realistic rendering of environments, for instance high-quality lighting, shadows and textures. It is well integrated with ROS, flexible, provides accurate simulation with four different physical engines (ODE, Bullet, Simbody and DART) and benefits from a large and active community. It is designed to accurately reproduce the dynamics of the complex environments a robot could encounter. It runs on Linux (even if protected versions for Windows are available). Gazebo is one of the most popular multi-robot simulators, firstly developed in 2004, fully open-source and supporting a wide range of sensors and objects. A - Introduction of main robotic simulators Gazebo This section aims at introducing and comparing main robotic simulators. These simulators enable to test some programs or robot movements without stopping production or cause damage. Robotic simulators software help to program robots offline.
