This is a central repository for tools, tutorials, resources, and documentation for robotic simulation in Unity.
The contents of this repository are in active development. Its features and API are subject to significant change as development progresses.
Simulation plays an important role in robotics development, and we’re here to ensure that roboticists can use Unity for these simulations. We have released our first set of tools to make it easier to use Unity with existing ROS-based workflows. Try out some of our samples below to get started quickly.
For any questions or feedback, connect directly with the Robotics team at [email protected].
| Tutorial | Description |
