List of open source and/or free software helpful for researchers in the marine robotics field. To suggest software, please send a mail to one of the chairs. Commercial software will not be listed here.

Specific software

• Marine Systems Simulator. The Marine Systems Simulator (MSS) is a Matlab/Simulink library and simulator for marine systems. It includes models for ships, underwater vehicles, and floating structures. The library also contains guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) blocks for real-time simulation.
• The Marine Visualization Toolbox. Toolbox for Matlab.
• Subsim. An Autonomous Submarine Simulation System.
• Holtrop v2. Scilab toolbox: Calculates ship total resistance using the method of Holtrop-Mennen.

Software of general interest

• Scilab. Matlab-like open source, free software for the simulation of dynamic systems.
