peekabot�3-D Robotic Visualization

“peekabot is a distributed real-time 3-D visualization tool for
robotics researchers and developers, written in C++. Its purpose is
to simplify the visualization needs faced by a roboticist
daily—using visualization as a debugging aid or making fancy
slides for a presentation, for example.

” Our goal is to provide a flexible tool that will cater to the
vast majority of a roboticist’s visualization needs, yet is easy to
use. Typical scenarios include visualization of simulations, data
display from real robots and monitoring of remotely deployed
robots.

“…to enable remote data visualization, peekabot uses a
distributed client-server architecture. All the gory details of
networking is handled by the client library, used by your
programs.

“peekabot’s low-level control of actions allows for some very
advanced scripting, such as the ob
