Description: ========================================
        Autonomous Robot Simulator (ARS)
        ========================================
        
        ARS is a physically-accurate open-source simulation suite for research and
        development of mobile manipulators and, in general, any multi-body system. It
        is modular, easy to learn and use, and can be a valuable tool in the process
        of robot design, in the development of control and reasoning algorithms, as
        well as in teaching and educational activities.
        
        It will encompass a wide range of tools spanning from kinematics and dynamics
        simulation to robot interfacing and control.
        
        The software is implemented in Python integrating the
        `Open Dynamics Engine (ODE) <https://sourceforge.net/projects/opende/>`_
        and the `Visualization Toolkit (VTK) <http://www.vtk.org/>`_.
        
        Installation and Requirements
        ====================
        For installation instructions and requirements, see the
        `online documentation <http://ars-project.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation/>`_.
        
        ARS relies in these software:
        
        * Python 2.7
        * ODE (Open Dynamics Engine) 0.12 (from rev 1864 could work but is untested) with Python bindings
        * VTK (Visualization Toolkit) 5.8 with Python bindings
        * NumPy 1.6
        
        Documentation
        ====================
        The documentation is hosted at
        `ReadTheDocs.org <http://ars-project.readthedocs.org>`_
        and it is generated dynamically after each commit to the repository.

        Tests
        ==========
        To run the included test suite (provided you have ``mock`` installed)::
        
           ~/ars$ python -m unittest discover --verbose
        
        If the output is too verbose for your taste, remove the option ``--verbose``.
