Robot Simulator: interaction with a V-REP simulation

The video shows a simulation performed with the Virtual Robot Experimentation Platform (V-REP: http://www.v-rep.eu ). It shows several mobile robots interacting with each other. During the whole simulation process, the user can interact with it by copy/pasting models (e.g. robots together with their behaviour (i.e. control scripts)), manipulating them in position/orientation, and even by changing their dimensions. During simulation the user can also switch to another V-REP instance (by default V-REP offers 4 in-parallel running simulator instances sharing a same copy buffer) and continue edition of another scene, running another simulation, or copy/pasting from there to another instance. The simulation shows just a few of V-REP's functionalities (e.g. inverse kinematics, dynamics, proximity sensors), but there are many more. The Asimo and Aibo CAD models are courtesy of Kazuyuki Shigeto, the old-fashioned R2D2 CAD model is courtesy of Lyall Randell, and the wheeled robot CAD model is courtesy of Cubictek co. ltd. The dynamic content is simulated with the embedded Bullet Physic library.

lol @ 0:14 -> he took it and threw it to the grooouuuund
