Description: underworlds is a **distributed and lightweight framework** that facilitates
        **building and sharing models of the physical world** surrounding a robot
        amongst independent software modules.
        
        These modules can be for instance geometric reasoners (that compute topological
        relations between objects), motion planner, event monitors, viewers... any
        software that need to access a **geometric** (based on 3D meshes of objects)
        and/or **temporal** (based on events) view of the world.
        
        One of the main feature of underworlds is the ability to store many
        *parallel* worlds: past models of the environment, future models, models with
        some objects filtered out, models that are physically consistent, etc.
        
        This package provides the underworlds server, a Python client library, and a set
        of tools to interact with the system (viewers, scene loader, ROS bridge, etc.).
        
        A handful of useful example applications are also provided, like skeleton
        tracking (using OpenNI) or visibility tracking.
