# Awesome Webots [![Awesome](https://awesome.re/badge.svg)](https://awesome.re)

> Interesting projects, papers, books, demos and other resources related to [Webots](https://github.com/cyberbotics/webots) robot simulator.

![Webots Cover](assets/cover.png)

Webots is a free and open-source 3D robot simulator used in industry, education and research. It includes a large collection of freely modifiable models of robots, sensors, actuators and objects. The robot controller programs can be written outside of Webots in C, C++, Python, ROS, Java and MATLAB using a simple API. Webots can stream a simulation on web browsers using WebGL.
