About

A lightweight, YAML-driven robot simulator for navigation, control, and learning

IR-SIM is an open-source, Python-based, lightweight robot simulator designed for navigation, control, and learning. It provides a simple, user-friendly framework with built-in collision detection for modeling robots, sensors, and environments. Ideal for academic and educational use, IR-SIM enables rapid prototyping of robotics and learning algorithms in custom scenarios with minimal coding and hardware requirements.

A minimal example: a differential-drive robot navigates toward a goal using the built-in dash behavior.
