pyPal is a jabber based chatterbot that can be used to launch commands remotely as well as to make some good conversation. It is expected to be capable of multi-language learning.

PySimiam is a robot simulator, created to follow the course "Control of Mobile Robots" offered at Coursera. The simulator models an arbitrary number of mobile robots in a 2D environment, each controlled by a arbitrary algorithm.

pySpykeeWeb is a simple web server written in Python for controlling a Spykee robot. Currently the program supports robot movement, dock, undock, battery level reporting commands, and video streaming.

pyWombat is a Python encapsulation layer for the Serial Wombat PIC microprocessor (www.serialwombat.com). The goal is to develop a robotics platform with intelligence on the host in Python and 'arms, legs and eyes' on the Wombat. See Wiki for details.

pydaqtools provides a common interface to data-acquisition hardware for Python. Control analog/digital output or acquire analog/digital input for immediate analysis with Python for scientific, educational or engineering applications.

The rp6simul project brings simulation software for the RP6 robot that is manufactured by AREXX engineering. Besides support for all peripherals on the robot base, the simulator also fully supports the m32 extension module, and both can be simulated either independently or simultaneously. Furthermore, a simple 2d environment can easily be created to test lighting, collision, motor speeds and so on. The simulator does not run native AVR files, but instead a thin wrapper is provided so that the AVR code can be compiled natively. Thanks to this wrapper, and a flexible Lua driver interface, the simulator emulates most of the IO registers, requiring no or minimal code modifications. rp6simul is primarily developed on Linux, but a Windows version will also be released.

sfunctioner is a GUI wizard written in PyQt for creating Matlab Simulink sfunctions quickly and efficiently. It helps creating a fully functional sfunction within a few minutes.

A simple messaging system designed for rapid deployment on robotic platforms. Based on the venerable Inter-Process Communication Package, simpleIPC offers several key extensions: units, auto-discovery, message descriptors, and a Python wrapper. See Soto.

The goal of zAutomation project is to design/implement hardware, firmware and software for remote control and monitoring of physical objects, by using the ZigBee technology and internet. The field of application is robotics and domotics.
