Project Status

Project background

This project has been created to accompany a master's degree thesis on constrained rigid body dynamics and dynamics of articulated figures drawn up by Marek Vondrak at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University, Prague during 2004-2005 under the supervision of RNDr. Josef Pelikan. The simulator is expected to evolve in the future and improve both in the simulation efficiency and ampleness of supported features, pending sufficicent time, funding, support and positive feedback from the community.
