===Player Project===

The [[Player Project]] (formerly the ''Player/Stage Project'') is a project to create [[free software]] for research into [[robotics]] and [[sensor]] systems.<ref>Gerkey, B., Vaughan, R., and Howard, A. (2003) The Player/Stage Project: Tools for Multi-Robot and Distributed Sensor Systems. ''Proceedings of the International Conference on Advanced Robotics'' 317-323</ref> Its components include the ''Player'' network server and the ''Stage'' robot platform simulators. Although accurate statistics are hard to obtain, Player is one of the most popular open-source robot interfaces in research and post-secondary education.<ref>Collet, T. H. J., MacDonald, B. A., and Gerkey, B. (2005) Player 2.0: Toward a practical robot programming framework. ''Proceedings of the Australasian Conference on Robotics and Automation (ACRA)''</ref> Most of the major intelligent robotics journals and conferences regularly publish papers featuring real and simulated robot experiments using Player and Stage.
