This Matlab-based simulator is aimed to provide a research tool to engineers and roboticists to design robotic systems with heterogeneity and dynamic-reconfigurability. The simulator can also be used as a testing and benchmarking tool for different mobile robotic systems
The users can start exploring the demos.
- The first one 'demo_simRN' will allow the users to simulate different mobile robot configurations to navigate in different unstructured scenarios.
- The second 'demo_simIbDR' will illustrate the simulator's ability to dynamically arbitrate the robot configurations to handle the unknown environments.
- The third demo 'demo_sim4WD' is included to illustrate the ability of simulator to navigate a holonomic 4WD robot in multitude of different settings using probabilistic roadmaps.
- Alternatively, one can also use the UIs to help one out in configuring the arenas, different robots and then simulating 'em in different settings.
But most importantly, the simulator provides a multitude of different tools to allow robot-heterogeneity and reconfigurablity in robotic systems.
