In a classroom, what to use depends on the existing infrastructure. If the school happens to have vSpere ESXi, then the virtual instances all run on the server with displays exported to the student's screen. There is nothing to do on the local PC and students can go home and do exercises using th

So I looked into the possibilites regarding simulation for a bit and found vismach [1] and openrave [2]. I couldn't really get used to vismach. Why are the models e.g. puma560 built as scale models? It doesn't support collision detection, right? Also I don't like that the model scripts (python) d
