About Fido
Fido is a light-weight, open-source, and highly modular C++ machine learning library. The library is targeted towards embedded electronics and robotics. Fido includes implementations of trainable neural networks, reinforcement learning methods, genetic algorithms, and a full-fledged robotic simulator. Fido also comes packaged with a human-trainable robot control system as described in Truell and Gruenstein. While the simulator is not in the most recent release, it can be found for experimentation on the simulator branch.

RoboDK
RoboDK is a powerful and cost-effective simulator for industrial robots and robot programming. RoboDK simulation software allows you to get the most out of your robot. No programming skills are required with RoboDK's intuitive interface. You can easily program any robot offline with just a few clicks. RoboDK has an extensive library with over 500 robot arms. The advantage of using RoboDK's simulation and offline programming tools is that it allows you to program robots outside the production environment. With RoboDK you can program robots directly from your computer and eliminate production downtime caused by shop floor programming. Use your robot arm like a 5-axis milling machine (CNC) or a 3D printer. Simulate and convert NC programs to robot programs (G-code or APT-CLS files). RoboDK will automatically optimize the robot path, avoiding singularities, axis limits and collisions. Simulation and Offline Programming of industrial robots has never been easier.

AWS RoboMaker
AWS RoboMaker is a cloud-based simulation service that enables robotics developers to run, scale, and automate simulations without managing any infrastructure. It allows for cost-effective scaling and automation of simulation workloads, supports large-scale and parallel simulations with a single API call, and facilitates the creation of user-defined, randomized 3D virtual environments. Developers can perform automated regression testing within a continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines, train reinforcement learning models through extensive iterative trials, and connect multiple concurrent simulations to fleet management software for comprehensive testing. By integrating with AWS machine learning, monitoring, and analytics services, AWS RoboMaker enables robots to stream data, navigate, communicate, comprehend, and learn. Connect multiple concurrent simulations to your fleet management software for testing.

RoboCell
RoboCell integrates ScorBase's robotic control software with interactive 3D solid modeling simulation, accurately replicating the dimensions and functions of Intelitek robotic equipment. This integration allows students to teach positions, write programs, and debug robotic applications offline before executing them in an actual work cell. RoboCell enables experimentation with various simulated work cells, even if the physical setups are unavailable in the lab. Advanced users can design 3D objects and import them into RoboCell for use in virtual work cells. The software operates in three modes: Online mode for controlling the robotic cell, Simulation mode for managing the virtual robotic cell in a 3D display, and offline mode for verifying ScorBase programs. Key features include dynamic 3D simulation with tracking of robots and devices, simulation of robot movements and gripper part manipulation, and support for peripheral axes like conveyor belts, XY tables, rotary tables, etc.
