Short description
Simulation of the KUKA youBot in the V-REP simulator.
The model features:
- dynamic simulation (with 2 physics engines to choose from: ODE or Bullet)
- kinematic simulation (inverse kinematics working hand-in-hand with the physics engine)
- very realistic model of the omnidirectional wheels (no shacking nor jittering, even on uneven ground)
- full model customization option, no need for any other tool than V-REP
- possibility to add any device from the model library (felt pen, laser scanner, kinect, gripper, etc.), or other devices designed by the user
A video of the V-REP youBot model can be found here.
Installation
The youBot model and many other models and demo scenes is contained in the V-REP installation package that can be downloaded here:
http://www.v-rep.eu/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=7&Itemid=14
Students can use V-REP for free, as long as it is installed on a private computer at home (free registration is required for that).
Usage
Just launch V-REP and drag and drop the youBot into the scene. You can also open the youBot demo scenes "youBotAndHanoiTower" or "youBotDemo".
