Introduction
The OpenSim team is running a workshop for the Dynamic Walking 2013 Annual meeting at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
This workshop will cover the development and simulation of a passive dynamic walker in OpenSim. Participants will be introduced to the OpenSim tools both in the standalone GUI and the new Matlab scripting tools. The workshop will culminate in a challenge where the workshop participants will aim to maximize walking distance over increasingly challenging terrain.
