Cognitive robotics toolkit
Aquila connected iCub experiments, neural-network tools, CUDA acceleration, and modular robot-research software.
SourcesOlder robotics work
Aquila Toolkit.
Aquila was my GPU-accelerated toolkit for cognitive robotics: modular CPU-GPU software, neural-network experiments, and iCub research infrastructure from the Plymouth PhD period.
Why this page exists
A close match for old Aquila links.
Older references pointed to a Joomla article about Aquila. This page gives those links a focused replacement and keeps the current site anchored to the robotics sources.
Aquila 2.0 paper
The Aquila 2.0 architecture paper records the toolkit as reusable infrastructure for heterogeneous CPU/GPU cognitive robotics.

The historical source, branches, original releases, screenshots and citations are preserved under my GitHub account. This is a research archive; the original dependencies and licences are documented in the repository.
Open toolkit record
SourceForge preserves the project page, release files, and source history for Aquila.
Developing robots with CUDA
NVIDIA’s CUDA spotlight connects the same research period to GPU-accelerated humanoid robotics.

Aquila archive
The toolkit was the working surface of the PhD period.
Aquila was not just a name in a publication list. It was the software layer that joined iCub experiments, CUDA acceleration, recurrent neural networks, camera filters, simulator modules, and teaching/research workflows.
