About Coppelia Robotics
Coppelia Robotics is the developer of CoppeliaSim (formerly V-REP), a versatile and scalable robotics simulation software. The platform supports companies and research institutions in testing and validating complex robotics systems through algorithm prototyping, kinematic design and the creation of digital twins. CoppeliaSim is based on a distributed control architecture in which each object or model can be controlled individually via embedded scripts (Python or Lua), plugins (C/C++), remote API clients (including Python, Java, MATLAB, Rust) or custom solutions. Fields of application include rapid algorithm development, factory automation simulations, prototyping and verification, robotics training, remote monitoring and safety double-checking. In addition to the software, the company offers tailored solutions such as model creation and plugin development, personalized training and e-mail support. Users include companies from robotics and automation, research institutions as well as schools and universities.
