If you are unfamiliar - Webots is a fantastic robotics simulation platform. Originally developed at EPFL in Switzerland and then as commercial software by Cyberbotics - its now* available under the Apache 2 license (with commercial support available from the Cyberbotics team).
*edit - Webots went open source with the 2019 release.
see: https://www.cyberbotics.com/doc/blog/Webots-2019-a-release https://www.cyberbotics.com/doc/blog/Webots-2019-a-release
It ships with a good collection of modifiable models including full robots as well as multiple sensors, actuators etc. Its is also simple to build and add your own robot models or integrate with other simulators. Controller programs can be written in C, C++, Python, ROS, Java or MATLAB via an easy to use API. Hopefully the open source edition will drive increased adoption.
