Got "cat and mouse" tutorial to start on Morse.
Pros:
- OpenSource
- Pretty much written all in Python
- Well organized and active project
- Tight Blender integration
- Supports other Middlewares YARP, MOOS, ROS(who?)
- Many devices and sensors already supported
- Large following? (I think)
Cons:
- Not supported on Windows (dunno why - perhaps one of the middle-wares don't work?) - it "should" work I think...
- Alot to learn
- Fast enough? The simulator was very sluggish - but current test is a Ubuntu VM running on a Windows host
- Possible challenges with MRL's goal - which is concept of plugging in virtual serial ports - then un-plugging and running the simulation on "real" hardware. MRL wants the simulator to be as "easy-one-click" as possible
