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.

This wiki pages hosts all of the materials and instructions for the workshop
