Fast prototyping and simulation of mobile robots. Webots is a development environment used to model, software and simulate mobile robots. With Webots the user can design complex robotic setups, with one or several, similar or different robots, in a shared environment. The properties of each object, such as shape, color, texture, mass, friction, etc., are chosen by the user. A large choice of simulated sensors and actuators is available to equip each robot.

The robot controllers can be programmed with the built-in IDE or with third party development environments. The robot behavior can be tested in physically realistic worlds. The controller programs can optionally be transferred to commercially available real robots. Webots is used by over 650 universities and research centers worldwide. With Webots, you take advantage of a proven technology that has been codeveloped by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, thoroughly tested, well documented and continuously maintained for over 10 years. The development time you save is enormous!

The Webots nodes and APIs are open specifications which can be freely reused without authorization from Cyberbotics. The Webots API can be freely ported and adapted to operate on any robotics platform using the remote-control and/or the cross-compilation frameworks. Cyberbotics offers support to help developers implementing the Webots API on real robots. This benefits to the robotics community by improving inter-operability between different robotics applications.
