-ODE is a free, industrial quality library for simulating articulated rigid body
-dynamics - for example ground vehicles, legged creatures, and moving objects in
-VR environments. It is fast, flexible, robust and platform independent, with
-advanced joints, contact with friction, and built-in collision detection.
