N2 - This paper introduces new so-called control by 3D simulation concepts which are the basis for the simulation based development of complex control algorithms e. g. in the field of robotics and automation. Now, a controller design can be developed, parameterized, tested and verified using so called Virtual Testbeds until they perform adequately in simulation. Then a stripped down version of the same simulation system uses the same simulation model and the same simulation algorithms on the real hardware implementing a real-time capable controller. This results in an integrated development approach, which brings simulation technology on the real hardware to bridge the gap between simulation and real world operation. In this way, Virtual Testbeds and control by 3D simulation provide major building blocks in the emerging field of eRobotics to keep manageable the ever increasing complexity of current computer-aided solutions.
