Overview

simulator_gazebo is a 3D rigid body simulation package for robots. It is a wrapper plus additional tools for using the Gazebo simulator from the Player/Stage/Gazebo project. Gazebo uses Open Dynamics Engine, a physics engine based on linear complementarity problem (LCP) constraint formulation, and OGRE, a scene graph 3D rendering engine.

See pr2_simulator stack for simulating the entire PR2 robot.
