FREESECS is an open-source project for SEMI SECS standards. The software is compiled with GNU autotools/GCC and runs on Linux, MacOS X, NetBSD. See http://opensecs.sourceforge.net

Critterding is a "Petri dish" universe in 3D that demonstrates evolving artificial life. Critters start out with completely random brains and bodies, but will automatically start evolving into something with much better survival skills.

Dummy-Robot is an open source robotics project by Peng Zhihui that showcases the design and implementation of a compact robotic arm . The repository contains full hardware design files, firmware, control software, and 3D models. It includes components such as a gripper, LED light ring PCB, wireless spatial positioning controller, and a portable case. The project demonstrates advanced engineering with stepper motor drivers, custom controllers, and debugging tools. While the original version is CNC-machined, a simplified 3D-printable "youth edition" is planned to lower costs. This project serves as both an educational resource and a demonstration of innovative DIY robotics.

PyRobot is a high-level robotics API that simplifies controlling real and simulated robots through a consistent Python interface. Instead of fighting ROS internals, you call clear methods for things like base navigation, arm manipulation, and camera capture, and PyRobot handles the plumbing. It was built to make research repeatable on accessible platforms—most notably low-cost mobile manipulators—while still scaling to richer hardware. The library exposes canonical abstractions (base, arm, gripper, camera, sensors) with calibration and kinematics helpers so beginners can get meaningful results quickly. It also plugs into simulation backends, letting you prototype perception and control algorithms before deploying on physical robots. By standardizing common operations and providing examples, PyRobot reduces boilerplate and encourages best practices in perception-control loops, data collection, and benchmarking.

oomwoo is an open-source robot vacuum project designed for people who want to build their own home cleaning robot. It combines Raspberry Pi, ROS2, Home Assistant, 2D LiDAR, ESP32, Arduino, and 3D printing into a community-buildable platform. The project aims to avoid vendor lock-in by keeping the hardware, software, and firmware open. It is designed around local control, with no cloud required for regular operation. The roadmap includes autonomous navigation, mapping, a documented 3D-printable chassis, firmware, motor drivers, sensor electronics, and ROS2 packages. The project is still in an early design and RFC stage, so it is best understood as a build-in-public hardware and robotics initiative rather than a finished consumer product.

A parametric, feature-based, sketch-driven 3D CAD application, built around a geometrical constraint solving engine. Project is in early development stage. The FreeSG library (http://freesg.org/) is required.

The Player Project: Player is a networked interface to robots and sensors. Stage and Gazebo are Player-friendly multiple-robot simulators. The software aims for POSIX compliance and runs on most UNIX-like OS's. Some parts also work on Windows.

openCONFIGURATOR is an open-source configuration framework for easy setup, configuration and maintenance of any POWERLINK (https://goo.gl/U9tjiy) network. It ideally complements openPOWERLINK, the open source POWERLINK protocol stack for master and slave. The project consists of a core library implementing the configuration algorithms and an eclipse plugin base user interface.

openPOWERLINK is an Open Source Industrial Ethernet stack for communication in hard real-time. It can be operated as both, Managing Node (master) and Controlled Node (slave). With version 2.0, the source code has been cleanly split into an application-oriented user library and a time-critical stack driver. The latter may be moved to a dedicated communication processor or into a kernel module to deliver enhanced performance while still keeping the API in user space. A full documentation of the stack is available on the web site: http://openpowerlink.sourceforge.net The following page can be used to report a security vulnerability: https://sourceforge.net/p/openpowerlink/discussion/
