Welcome to SCONE

SCONE is free and open-source software for predictive simulation of human and animal motion.

With SCONE, you can define and optimize neuromuscular controllers to optimally perform a specific task, according to high-level objectives such as walking speed and energy efficiency.

As of version 2.0, SCONE supports Hyfydy, a new simulation engine that delivers a 50-100x speedup over OpenSim and helps support the development of SCONE.
