Stewart plaform simulation
Stewart Platform Yvan Bourquin developed a Webots simulation model of a Stewart platform. A Stewart platform is a kind of parallel manipulator using an octahedral assembly of struts. A Stewart platform has six degrees of freedom (x, y, z, pitch, roll, and yaw). In this example, the Stewart platform is loaded with a few stacked boxes, then the platform moves and the boxes stumble appart. This simulation uses a physics plug-in to attach both ends of the linear actuators (hydraulic pistons) to the lower and the upper parts of the Stewart platform. Webots 6 includes all the sources files for this simulation model (world file generator, physics plug-in and robot controller).

As a seasonal gift, GCtronic is sending us a nice demo for every e-puck robot allowing you to transform your e-puck robot into a Christmas demo with sound and light! You can see that demo on YouTube, download the complete software project or just the resulting compiled hex file. Also a Matlab script  allows you to easily transform sound wav files to be compiled in an e-puck project.
