Ask HN: What do I need to do to start with virtual robotics?

4 pointsh_tbob2 comments

I want to build a simple simulator so I can test robotics algorithms. Are there any good libraries that let you, for example, test out algorithms to get a robot to walk?

It would be fun to raise funding, but it seems it would be easier to get it if I had a working prototype in a simulator, for example. Any ideas?

I maintain a list of interesting robotics projects (https://github.com/msadowski/awesome-weekly-robotics). You will find a simulator section there but whether they are useful for you will depend on the details of your project. I don’t think it’s there but you could also check out MuJoCo.

Awesome! I will check it out!
