Description

Details

Real-time simulation of the KUKA youBot in Webots. The robot model contains principally: 

  • all the DOF of the robot (4 wheels + 5 servos for the arm + gripper)
  • an accurate model of the physics (masses, torques, collisions)
  • realistic omnidirectional wheels (modeled with subwheels exactly like in reality)
  • the possibility to be easily extended by cameras, Hokuyo or Kinect sensors
  • the possibility to be easily modified (2 arms model or only-plate model)
  • the possibility to be controlled from the Webots API (C/C++/Java/Python/Matlab/URBI) or from ROS.

A video of the simulation model is available here.

Installation

This robot simulation model is included in the latest version of Webots which can be downloaded from http://www.cyberbotics.com/download .

In order to be able to create your own control programs for the simulated robot, you will need to get a Webots license, either a free 30 days trial license or a regular EDU or PRO license. All these licenses are available from Cyberbotics's web site at http://www.cyberbotics.com.

Usage

The free version of Webots allows you to run the simulation by opening the world file located in $(WEBOTS_HOME)/projects/robots/youbot/worlds/youbot.wbt.

The controller files used for these simulation are located in $(WEBOTS_HOME)/projects/robots/youBot/controllers/youBot. The main() and automatic_behavior()functions in the file youBot.c show how to initialize the robot and control all of its parts, i.e. platform, arm and gripper.
