Virtual Robot Experimentation Platform

Posted by admin at 3:56 pm | 12 Comments


The Virtual Robot Experimentation Platform is a robot simulator that I developed while employed at the Toshiba Corporate Research and Development Center in Kawasaki, Japan, from 2001 to 2004. It is built on various calculation modules (collision detection, distance calculation, proximity sensor simulation, inverse/forward kinematics, path planning and to a certain extent dynamics). It can be used throught the GUI that comes with it or by making appropriate function calls through the API. Entirely programmed in C++ (I coded all modules from scratch except for the embedded LUA script engine), it fits in a 1.5mb DLL file. Btw I acquired all the rights on the software in 2006. In the mean time the virtual robot experimentation platform has evolved quite a lot, have a look at the other videos

    is your work at Cubictek related to this?
