Robots are hard, game engines are not: why we built our own simulator using Unity - Formant gives robot companies the ability to observe, operate, and analyze robots at scale. We have a deep bench of roboticists and cloud engineers, but what we don’t have (and don’t want to have) is thousands of robots lying around waiting to be turned on. Given the cost, complexity and non-standardization of robotic hardware, we realized that a “digital double” — a virtual robot proxy that could be spawned in minutes that could allow us to run it through the virtual “ringer” would be extremely beneficial to our product development and testing.

Feeling the environments: the magic of particle effects - Getting to transmit certain desired sensations in the scenarios of a game is not only limited to the choice of appropriate models or good lighting, we must accompany it with a series of “environmental effects” that at Fulvinter we have emulated through the Unity ́s Particle Systems. This article is not going to be a tutorial of how they are used, but of the keys in the configuration of each effect on the sensation that we were looking for.
