Part III: Gazebo & Unity Simulation

Part Overview​

Simulation is essential for developing Physical AI systems safely and efficiently. This part covers Gazebo (physics simulation) and Unity (high-fidelity visualization).

Chapters​

  • Ch 9: Gazebo architecture, SDF, physics engines
  • Ch 10: Simulating humanoids, testing locomotion
  • Ch 11: Unity-ROS bridge, visualization

Learning Outcomes​

  1. Configure Gazebo worlds and robot models
  2. Simulate humanoid walking and balance
  3. Integrate Unity for photorealistic rendering
  4. Test robot behaviors before hardware deployment

Time: 18-24 hours total
