Open Source Mac Robotics Software

DXF2GCODE is a tool for converting 2D (dxf, pdf, ps) drawings to CNC machine compatible GCode. Windows, Linux, and Mac support by using python scripting language.

BoofCV is an open source Java library for real-time computer vision and robotics applications. Written from scratch for ease of use and high performance, it provides both basic and advanced features needed for creating a computer vision system. Functionality include optimized low level image processing routines (e.g. convolution, interpolation, gradient) to high level functionality such as image stabilization. Released under an Apache 2.0 license for both academic and commercial use.

This repository is now frozen. The latest version of the RepRap project can be found at https://github.com/reprap.

A parametric, feature-based, sketch-driven 3D CAD application, built around a geometrical constraint solving engine. Project is in early development stage. The FreeSG library (http://freesg.org/) is required.

Marvin is an image processing framework that provides features for image and video frame manipulation, multithreading image processing, image filtering and analysis, unit testing, performance analysis and addition of new features via plug-in.

OpenSim - Open Simulator. Primarily a 3D simulator for multiple indoor and outdoor mobile robots. Includes 3D real-time rendering (via OSG) and a physics engine (via ODE). Current emphasis is on manipulators.

An implementation of Bruhn et al.'s fast variational optical flow algorithm using the OpenCV image processing library. The code calculates dense flow fields with a user-specified level of precision.

Driver support for 3D Controller Hardware. We hope to support SDL Input, DirectInput, and other major controller API's including game consoles and embedded systems.

This library contains among other things a set of graphical widgets for video output, performance evaluation and augmented reality. The library also provides classes for several data types usually required by computer vision and image processing applications such as vectors, matrices, quaternions and images. Thanks to a large number of wrapper functions these objects can be used with highly efficient functionality from third party libraries such as OpenCV, GNU Scientific Library, Computational Geometry Algorithms Library, Intel's Math Kernel Library and Integrated Performance Primitives, the Octave library, etc...

A High Performance 3D engine and Game engine, specially designed for Physics and mechanical simulations.Integrates physics, Portal Rendering, OpenGL and Cg shaders.

Geometric Computer Vision library in C++. Provides functions and structures of projective geometry, taylored for 3D computer vision.

Create phyiscal simulations easily through IPSA which combines the OpenInventor 3D API with the Open Dynamics Engine (ODE). Scenes are read from .iv files and simulated in the supplied viewer applications. Find it at: http://ipsa.sourceforge.net

Simulator of virtual animals made up of biological neural networks for research in the Computational Neuroscience field.

Plantra-Trajectory Planning is a software to rebuild surfaces from cloud points, featuring shaded 3D visualization and path planning for robotics paths. It uses Voronoi diagram, Cyrus-Beck clipping, Delaunay triangulation and B-Splines.

ROSEN means RObotic Simulation Erlang eNgine; it is a software library, written in Erlang, which simulates 3D environments and in particular autonomous mobile robots, each with its behaviour and interaction capabilities.

Robot Controlling System (RCS) - is a .NET-oriented software group for controlling remote mechanical objects, debuging and programming them by .NET-languages

A robotic DIY styrofoam cutter consisting of one rotational and two translational axes. It cuts a variety of shapes out of styrofoam-like materials using a hot wire. This project documents the necessary hardware and software parts. Don't miss the follow-up project at http://raumschaum.org Its goal is to further develop hardware and software into an user friendly application.

This project simulates a multi-agent system (swarm) behavior both graphically and not. The purpose of this project is to research the properties suggested in "stability analysis of swarms" V.Gazi & K.M.Passino. Using the vpython library for 3D modeling

ThreeCAM is an open source 3D CAM program written in Java.

Qiew is a minimalistic and portable VRML/Inventor Viewer targeting Linux, Windows and Mac OS X computers.
