Drake Gallery

If you have an example from your own work that you would like to showcase, please edit doc/gallery.rst directly and submit a pull request!

Legged Robots

The Rimless Wheel

The simplest and perhaps the most elegant example of the principles of passive dynamic walking.

The Compass Gait

One of the simplest bipedal walking systems, it walks passively down a ramp or can be actuated by a torque at the hip or impulse at the toe to walk on more general terrain.

The Planar Monopod Hopper

A simple model of the famous hopping robots from MIT's Leg Laboratory.

LittleDog Gait Optimization

Strandbeest

A dynamical model of a robot inspired by Theo Jansen's Strandbeest walking creatures. The model has over 100 joints, but just one degree of freedom thanks to its complex mechanical linkages. It can also walk passively downhill.

Quadrotor Forest Trajectory Optimization

A simple demonstration of collision-free dynamic trajectory optimization.

Quadrotor Online Obstacle Avoidance

A demonstration of using funnel libraries to dynamically navigate a simulated forest.

Source Code: drake/examples/Quadrotor/runOnlinePlanning.m

Quadrotor Simulation with Onboard Lidar

A demonstration of using Drake to simulate a lidar sensor onboard a quadrotor in C++.

Source Code: drake/examples/Quadrotor/run_quadrotor_dynamics.cc

Robot Manipulation

Humanoid Robots

Cars

A simulation of a dynamical car model based on the Toyota Prius body, simulated in the Drake toolkit.

Source Code: drake/automotive

Canonical Underactuated Systems

Physics Engine

Drake's rigid-body manipulator classes support frictional contact, aerodynamics, and a rich set of forces, sensors, and kinematic constraints. This video just shows a few quick examples; the source code can be found in the examples and test directories of the Drake distribution.

20 falling capsules. It's not fast to simulate, but it works.
