[Sergii] has been learning about robot simulation and wrote up a basic simulator for a robodog platform: the Unitree A1. It only took about 800 lines of code to do so, which probably makes it a good ...

Isaac Robot Simulator Enables Training in Simulated Conditions Before Real-World Deployment; Jetson-based Reference Platforms Enable Quicker Design Times The NVIDIA Isaac robot simulator uses ...

Farming is a challenge under even the best of circumstances. Almost all conventional farmers use some combination of tillers, combines, seeders and plows to help get the difficult job done, but for ...

Training a robot in a simulation that allows it to remember how to get out of sticky situations lets it traverse difficult terrain more smoothly in real life. Joonho Lee at ETH Zurich in Switzerland ...

Virtual reality headsets can trick our eyes and ears into believing we're someplace else. Fooling the rest of the body is a little trickier though. Companies have tried spinning chairs and ...

Imagine a seat attached to a platform, which is surrounded by a cage. So far, it sounds like the regular racing simulator, right? However, the cage is pulled by eight retracting cables and a high ...

We've been calling for this game to be made ever since the great simulation bubble of the 30s. Then you couldn't move for simulated versions of things. Cow tipping, toasting bread, making a bed, all ...

Computer simulations designed to teach people how to operate a vehicle can reproduce a reasonable facsimile of real-world conditions, but they lack one key ingredient: a realisic sense of motion. That ...
