Sim.I.am is a robotics simulator that can be used to learn how to apply controls to mobile robots.
The app is a demo of a multi-agent application, where one robot follows the other robot through a cluttered environment. On-screen instructions are included.
A manual is included to help learn how to work with the simulator. It also provides as set of programming exercises focused on how to implement the mobile robot navigation system (found in the app) from scratch.
Sim.I.am is maintained by the Georgia Robotics and InTelligent (GRITS) Laboratory at the Georgia Institute of Technology. The project page is located at http://gritslab.gatech.edu/projects/robot-simulator.
