Calculation of camshafts - allows to define a camshaft profile on the set trajectory which should provide the given mechanism. The trajectory can be set graphically, co-ordinates or function.

The goal of this project is to develop a hot wire foam cutter that relies on a simple embedded controller to provide real time functionality.

NOTE: Since 2022 this hosting of PLEXIL is deprecated. PLEXIL has moved to GitHub at https://github.com/plexil-group/plexil. Documentation is found at https://plexil-group.github.io/plexil_docs. Please use these new locations. PLEXIL is a plan execution language and technology developed by NASA and used in automation and autonomy applications at NASA and in the public sector. This software includes compilers for the language, the executive (runtime environment), and related tools. It runs on Unix-based computers, including macOS and Linux.

Highly modularized Reinforcement Learning library for real/simulation robots to learn behaviors. Our ultimate goal is to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) program with which the robots can learn to behave as their users wish.

Arduino2Lego is a project developed at the Politecnico of Milan by a Computer Science Engineering student. It aims to make all Lego NXT peripherals (motors, sensors,...) easily usable from Arduino.

Here you can find the following Tools and libs for the famous ASURO robot. ASUROLIB: C library for the ASURO. ASURINO+ASUROBOOT: An Arduino library and Arduino/STK500v1 compatible Bootloader for the ASURO.

LMSAPI is a framework library for getting access to the SICK LMS200 sensor from high level programming languages. This will make possible the integration of the LMS200 functionality in advanced automation projects.

The Matlab/Octave rotations library is a collection of functions, bundled as m-scripts, that address computations and numerical handling of rotations in 3D Euclidean space. The rotation representations that are supported are rotation matrices (Rotmat), Quaternions (Quat), intrinsic ZYX Euler angles (Euler), fused angles (Fused) and tilt angles (Tilt). Operations such as composition, inversion, ZYX yaw extraction, fused yaw extraction, random generation, equality detection, vector rotation and much more have been implemented for each rotation representation. Tilt vector addition and the relative and absolute tilt phase spaces are also supported. Unit tests for each function are provided to ensure that the library is performant.

C and C++ library for the NIBObee, NIBO burger and NIBO 2 robots. The library contains libraries for AVR Studio and Arduino developement, USB drivers and the RoboDude programming software.

PMC is an open project that aims to build the quality permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) controller for use in a variety of scopes like RC or electric transport.

This library contains among other things a set of graphical widgets for video output, performance evaluation and augmented reality. The library also provides classes for several data types usually required by computer vision and image processing applications such as vectors, matrices, quaternions and images. Thanks to a large number of wrapper functions these objects can be used with highly efficient functionality from third party libraries such as OpenCV, GNU Scientific Library, Computational Geometry Algorithms Library, Intel's Math Kernel Library and Integrated Performance Primitives, the Octave library, etc...

An application to control remotely a Quadcopter throught a Raspberry Pi. The goal is to be able to command and view what is in front of the quadcopter with a camera. This is allready working using a python Webserver and streaming video from Raspberry Camera. You can play also without camera support from command line with remote access.

This library (ROBOOP) is a C++ robotics object oriented programming toolbox suitable for synthesis, and simulation of robotic manipulator models in an environment that provides ``MATLAB like'' features for the treatment of matrices. Its is a portable tool that does not require the use of commercial software. A class named Robot provides the implementation of the kinematics, the dynamics and the linearized dynamics of serial robotic manipulators. A class named Stewart provides the implementation of the kinematics, the dynamics for Stewart type parallel manipulators.

Understanding the mechanism of intelligence in human beings and animals is one of the most important approaches to developing intelligent robot systems. Since the mechanisms of such real-life intelligent systems are so complex, such as the physical interactions between agents and their environment and the social interactions between agents, comprehension and knowledge in many peripheral fields such as cognitive science, developmental psychology, brain science, evolutionary biology, and robotics. Therefore, we have been developing a simulator environment called SIGVerse, which is a simulator that combines dynamics, perception, and communication simulations for synthetic approaches to research into the genesis of social intelligence. In this paper, we introduce SIGVerse, its example application and perspectives.

Simox has moved to gitlab. Please update your URLs: https://gitlab.com/Simox/simox A platform-independent robot simulation, motion and grasp planning toolbox consisting of three modules: VirtualRobot to simulate and visualize robots, Saba the sampling-based motion planning library and GraspStudio for grasp planning.

VirtualVEX is an open-source simulator platform for the VEX robotics design system. It features full competition simulation, with automatic scoring and timing and multiple robot designs to choose from. VirtualVEX is also programmable: users can write and upload code using the bundled VVDevelop IDE, which has one-click deployment and testing support. VirtualVEX also supports dual-pad joysticks similar to those used by the actual VEX platform, allowing users to get realistic driving practice. The software is free and is distributed under the GPL v.3
