 +== Scene Format Conversion Tool for Robotics Simulation (MA Thesis) ==
 +
 +**Motivation:**
 +
 +With robotics playing a significant role in various domains, simulation is essential for developing and testing algorithms. Multiple simulators are available, each with its own specialized format (SDF, USD, MJCF, URDF, FBX) for describing scenes. This diversity of formats makes it challenging to transfer scenarios between simulators. Therefore, a versatile parser that can convert scene descriptions between these formats is highly valuable.
 +
 +{{:multiformat.png?400|}}
 +
 +**Task Description:**
 +
 +The objective of this project is to develop a universal parser capable of converting scene descriptions between common formats. The following key steps are involved:
 +
 +  - Create a model to represent and store the scene graph.
 +  - Implement import functions for the model to handle scene descriptions in any of the supported formats.
 +  - Implement export functions for the model to generate scene descriptions in any of the supported formats.
 +
 +**Requirements:**
 +
 +  * A strong passion for robotics.
 +  * Dedication to the chosen topic.
 +  * Eager to learn.
