Welcome to SCONE
SCONE is free and open-source software for predictive simulation of human and animal motion.
With SCONE, you can optimize musculoskeletal models to perform specific tasks, according to high-level objectives such as walking speed and energy efficiency.
SCONE can perform simulations using OpenSim and Hyfydy, which is a novel biomechanical simulation engine that delivers a 100x speedup over OpenSim.
SCONE includes a Python API, designed and streamlined for machine learning applications.
SCONE is available for Windows, Linux and macOS.
