About
RoboAnalyzer software development started at the Mechatronics Lab, Department of Mechanical Engineering at IIT Delhi, New Delhi, India under the guidance of Prof. S.K. Saha. The need for a robotics software to teach robotics has motivated us to develop RoboAnalyzer. The following students are given due credits in its development.
The term RoboAnalyzer was used since 2009 for a new software, though the dynamic analysis were available since 1996 in the form of RIDIM software. A brief history of contributors of RIDIM and RoboAnalyzer are mentioned below.
