- This paper describes the sensor and actuator modeling of a realistic wheeled mobile robot simulator. The motivation of developing such simulator is to produce a personalized versatile tool that allows production and validation of robot software reducing considerably the development time. The mobile robot simulator was developed in object pascal with its dynamics based on the ODE (open dynamics engine), allowing to develop robot software for a three wheel omnidirectional robot equipped with Infra-Red distance sensors and brushless motor
