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
