Make it possible to use the Microsoft Robotic Studio Simulator to run with Urbi applications. Even if Webots is a good virtual environment, it's a bit expensive.

Robotino is a Robot designed by Festo Company.
It is driven by a Linux OS (Ubuntu), and it can be programmed through JAVA or C++, for example.
It becomes widely used in Baccalaureat S (Ingeneer Science) in France.

Provide bindings for C# from .NET platform

The SDK would contain the Urbi toolchain + the compiler. The compiled modules would be deployed on a web site and fetched by the robot at start.
