Get the shownotes at: http://www.theconstructsim.com/webots-robot-simulator-ros-olivier-michel Today, I would like to dedicate the episode to those ROS developers that use simulations as a key element in their ROS development. I mean, you use the simulation to test your programs until they work properly in it and then, and only then, you move to the real robot testing. For the professional ROS developers, this podcast is dedicated to you! And today, it is my pleasure to introduce you Olivier Michel CEO of Cyberbotics, the company that develops Webots simulator. Olivier is going to explain us, how the Webots simulator started, what are its main features, why it became open source, and how we can use it with ROS by using the webots_ros package.
