The Dragon Fire compiler takes a new, 21st century, look at the Dragon (i.e. Dragon Book). No longer impenetrable to the programmer, this compiler is open and available to them. You control the Dragon, and get Dragon insight into your programs.

This project contains tools, that were created during the work with the Katana robotic manipulator at the workgroup EOS of the University of Magdeburg.

The EP avr-gcc library is a funktion library in C for the Atmel AVR Microcontroller. It has functions for LCD, USART and more.

A cross-platform library that computes fast and accurate SIFT image features. libsiftfast provides Octave/Matlab scripts, a command line interface, and a python interface (siftfastpy). Optimized with SIMD instructions and OpenMP .

HomeRobot is an open source robotics framework developed by Facebook Research (Meta AI) that provides a complete software stack for mobile manipulation in real-world and simulated environments. Designed for low-cost robots such as the Hello Robot Stretch, HomeRobot enables agents to perceive, navigate, and interact with their surroundings through vision and manipulation. The system focuses on Open Vocabulary Mobile Manipulation (OVMM) — a challenging task in which a robot must explore an unknown environment, identify an object by name, locate a suitable receptacle, and place the object appropriately. HomeRobot integrates perception, planning, and control under a unified architecture, supporting AI Habitat for simulation and ROS Noetic for real-world deployment. It provides interfaces for Detic, Grounded-SAM, and Contact-GraspNet, allowing open-vocabulary detection and 3D grasping.

This project aims to control the KSR10 Robot Arm (Velleman) through USB with the programming language Python. Requirements: - Python (tested with version 2.6 and 2.7) - modules: pyusb (wich on itself requires libusb or openusb)

LightningROS is a ROS package implementing the Lightning Path Planning Framework. The code here was developed for ROS Feurte. For later ROS versions, see https://github.com/WPI-ARC/lightning_ros This approach uses a path library to store previous experience while allowing generality by also planning from scratch. Please see the paper below for more details: A Robot Path Planning Framework that Learns from Experience Dmitry Berenson, Pieter Abbeel, and Ken Goldberg IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), May, 2012. This package uses OMPL planners (http://ompl.kavrakilab.org/) to implement each component in lightning and can be called the same way as any other OMPL planner. The code was developed at UC Berkeley by Cameron Lee and Dmitry Berenson under the supervision of Prof. Pieter Abbeel and Prof. Ken Goldberg. Please see the Wiki for instructions on how to install and use lightning: https://sourceforge.net/p/lightningros/wiki/Home/

LinuxCNC controls CNC machines. It can drive milling machines, lathes, 3d printers, laser cutters, plasma cutters, robot arms, hexapods, and more.

MBDyn_sim_suite is a collection of free pre&post-processing tools and simulation models for the open-source multi-body analysis software MBDyn forming a general purpose simulation environment for structural dynamics with an emphasis on wind turbines.

The Massive G Engine is a simple yet feature-rich extensible 3D simulation engine for Robotics Research and gaming.

This project is the software development section for the McGill underwater robotics team. We compete here: http://www.auvsi.org/about/

NVIDIA Isaac‑GR00T N1.5 is an open-source foundation model engineered for generalized humanoid robot reasoning and manipulation skills. It accepts multimodal inputs—such as language and images—and uses a diffusion transformer architecture built upon vision-language encoders, enabling adaptive robot behaviors across diverse environments. It is designed to be customizable via post-training with real or synthetic data. The vision-language model remains frozen during both pretraining and finetuning, preserving language understanding and improving generalization. Streamlined MLP connection between vision encoder and LLM with added layer normalization.

A platform independent framework to remote control Lego Mindstorms NXT from Python. Using PyBluez http://org.csail.mit.edu/pybluez/ for Bluetooth connectivity and wxPython http://www.wxpython.org/ for UI.

Simulator of virtual animals made up of biological neural networks for research in the Computational Neuroscience field.

This is the worlds first and probably only FLOSS project aimed to create a lowbudget, based on availble technology, cruise missile. No this is not a Joke, its for real. Why? Since no one has tried to do this before and certainly not under the GPL.
