SCONE Documentation

SCONE is free and open-source software for predictive simulation of human, animal and robot motion. In SCONE, everything needed to perform a predictive simulation is bundled in what is called a scenario, which consists of:

  • A Model of the human, animal or robot you wish to simulate.
  • A Controller that produces input signals for the model actuators (either feedforward, feedback or a combination).
  • An Objective that describes the goal task for which you wish to optimize, through a weighted combination of Measures.
  • An Optimizer that tries to find the SCONE Parameters that optimally perform the specified objective.

To learn more about SCONE scenarios, be sure check out the SCONE Basics tutorial.
