Introduction

Michael Doronin did a project on Software modelling of robotic swarms using the robot simulation software Gazebo (https://sourceforge.net/projects/playerstage/) and the physics engine ODE (https://www.ode.org/). Here are some videos, which were generated in this project.

Simulation of a small swarm of robots (8.8 MByte video)

Demonstration of the Open Dynamics Engine (217 kByte video)
