Abstract :
Robot developers need to simulate and visualise robot behaviour in environments where sometimes an accurate dynamics simulation is needed. This paper presents a flexible dynamics architecture that is able to integrate a suitable dynamics engine (such as OpenDE) together with a suitable visualisation tool, to create a dynamics simulation tool most appropriate for a researcher’s specific needs.
