MIT Biomimetics' software for the Cheetah 3 and Mini Cheetah quadruped robots, containing a dynamics/common library, robot control programs, and a Qt-based simulator. It supports building controllers in simulation and deploying them to the real robot over SSH.

Use cases

  • simulate quadruped robot locomotion
  • develop controllers for Mini Cheetah
  • test legged robot control algorithms in simulation
  • deploy control code to a real quadruped robot
  • study quadruped dynamics and locomotion research

When to choose

  • you are working with Cheetah 3 or Mini Cheetah hardware
  • you need a research-grade quadruped simulator and control framework
  • you want a reference implementation of legged robot controllers

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose robot simulator like Gazebo or MuJoCo
  • you work with non-quadruped robots
  • you need actively maintained software with recent updates
