Calculation of camshafts - allows to define a camshaft profile on the set trajectory which should provide the given mechanism. The trajectory can be set graphically, co-ordinates or function.

MBDyn_sim_suite is a collection of free pre&post-processing tools and simulation models for the open-source multi-body analysis software MBDyn forming a general purpose simulation environment for structural dynamics with an emphasis on wind turbines.

VirtualVEX is an open-source simulator platform for the VEX robotics design system. It features full competition simulation, with automatic scoring and timing and multiple robot designs to choose from. VirtualVEX is also programmable: users can write and upload code using the bundled VVDevelop IDE, which has one-click deployment and testing support. VirtualVEX also supports dual-pad joysticks similar to those used by the actual VEX platform, allowing users to get realistic driving practice. The software is free and is distributed under the GPL v.3

openSDK is a free and open-source implementation of Sony's OPEN-R Development Kit. OPEN-R is a trademark or a registered trademark of Sony Corporation.

Qspline does quaternion interpolation such that the quaternion and angular rate and acceleration vectors are continuous functions of time, while maintaining quaternion normalization.

ARS is a physically-accurate robotics simulator written in Python. It's main purpose is to help researchers with to develop mobile manipulators and, in general, any multi-body system. It is open-source, modular, easy to learn and use, and can be a valuable tool in the process of robot design, in the development of control and reasoning algorithms, as well as in teaching and educational activities.
