GitHub - jimmikaelkael/simbad: Simbad is a Java 3d robot simulator for scientific and educationnal purposes. It is mainly dedicated to researchers/programmers who want a simple basis for studying Situated Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and more generally AI algorithms, in the context of Autonomous Robotics and Autonomous Agents. It is not intented to provide a real world simulation and is kept voluntarily readable and simple. Simbad enables programmers to write their own robot controller, modify the environment and use the available sensors. Don't think of it as a finite product but merely as an opened framework to test your own ideas.

README
=======================================

Thank you for your interest in Simbad !

Simbad is a Robot 3d simulator for scientific and educationnal purposes.
It is voluntarily kept simple and readable to enable a programmer to design its own robot behavior and environment.

REQUIREMENTS:
=======================================
 
It is based solely on Java (>= 1.4.2) and Java3D.


=======================================

+ src/contrib directory  : contributed components to Simbad.
+ src/examples directory : examples you can use as starting point
+ doc/api directory      : javadoc  files.
+ lib directory          : the place where jar files are stored.
+ python directory       : python example scripts for simbad.
+ build.xml file         : the ant build file.


======================================
HOW TO USE DEMO:

You must have installed Java3D.

Launch the demo application :
    java -jar lib/simbad.jar  

or:
    java -cp lib/simbad.jar simbad.gui.Simbad


======================================
HOW TO USE PYTHON EXAMPLES:

You need first to install jython (www.jython.org) and add lib/simbad.jar to your CLASSPATH.
Run:
    jython python/simple_plan.py


======================================
HOW TO BUILD  :

Simbad distribution comes directly with compiled jar file and does not need compilation.
However if you modify the source you can recompile with ant tool: 
    ant clean
    ant dist
