Our robotic simulation and modeling solutions
Simulation is essential for robotic systems, streamlining complex operations and accelerating development. At Ekumen, we help your organization adopt, enhance, and leverage simulation technologies in innovative ways to boost your operations.
Contact usRobot modeling and testing
We have extensive experience in robot modeling and testing, including adapting models for use in physics simulators. This allows us to validate software stacks before hardware deployment. Additionally, we provide training and maintenance for simulator components to ensure optimal performance and regular updates.
Physical phenomena modeling
Our expertise in physical phenomena modeling includes creating simulations with custom terrain, aerial vehicles, and non-rigid body trees. We also simulate specific conditions such as lighting, gas, and suspended particles. Combined with realistic sensors and actuators, our models deliver high fidelity and realism for diverse applications.
Photorealism and synthetic data generation
We craft photorealistic simulation scenarios for both indoor and outdoor environments. By generating synthetic datasets with controlled variables, we augment real-world data to create robust training sets. This includes capturing reliable ground truth information, such as LIDAR and RGB data, along with realistic sensor noise models.

Frequently asked questions
How can I validate the navigation of my AMR?
Integrating a physics simulator with an AMR's software stack is key to validating navigation algorithms. By modeling the scene, sensors, and actuators, as well as using test companions, you can verify trajectory metrics to ensure the robot moves as expected.
How can I properly simulate gripping?
Simulating gripping requires a precise and robust simulator paired with accurate models of surfaces and parameters. Various robotic simulators can deliver different levels of accuracy, depending on the specific tasks at hand.
How can I train machine learning models with simulation?
Simulation provides multiple ways to train machine learning models. Examples include generating synthetic datasets and annotations, pre-training models with simulated data or through simulation loops, and using photorealistic simulators to augment limited real-world datasets. Combining the right tools enables faster development cycles and better outcomes.
