> **Microsoft AirSim (Aerial Informatics and Robotics Simulation)** is an open-source robotics simulation platform. From ground vehicles, wheeled robotics, aerial drones, and even static IoT devices, AirSim can capture data for models without costly field operations. > > AirSim works as a plug-in to **Epic Games' Unreal Engine 4 editor**, providing control over building environments and simulating difficult-to-reproduce, real-world events to capture meaningful data for AI models. > **AirSim exposes APIs** so you can interact with the vehicle in the simulation programmatically. You can use these APIs to retrieve images, get state, control the vehicle and so on. The APIs are exposed through the RPC, and are accessible via a variety of languages, including C++, Python, C# and Java.
