    Summary of Duckietown Software Terms of Use 

    Version 1.2 
     
    This is an informal summary of the Duckietown Software Terms of Use. You can find the complete formal text at 
    the page ​https://www.duckietown.org/terms-of-use​.  
     
    1. Personal use 
     
    You are welcome to use the software for personal educational use. 
     
    We ask that if you disseminate video or photo content, such content must conform to the Media Compliance Rule (see 
    Appendix). 
     
    2. Use for classes at accredited institutions  
     
    You may use this software in teaching classes at an accredited degree-granting institution, subject to the following 
    conditions: 
     
    a) We ask that you contact us and provide us with statistics about your class, so that we can keep a tally of the 
    users of the Duckietown Platform around the world.  
    b) We ask that the Duckietown Project is acknowledged on the class website. 
    c) Produced video or photo content follow the Media Compliance Rule (see Appendix). 
     
    Optionally, we would be thrilled if you join our international community of Duckietown instructors. Please contact us 
    at ​[email protected]​. 
     
    3. Use for research projects 
     
    You may use the Duckietown Platform in a research project, provided that: 
    a) The Duckietown Project is properly acknowledged in the paper: e.g. “The hardware/software used for the 
    experiments was developed by the Duckietown Project --- www.duckietown.org.” 
    b) Produced video or photo content follow the Media Compliance Rule (see Appendix).  
     
    Optionally, we would appreciate if: 
    a) You cite one of the papers that we wrote on the platform. 
    b) You provide us with a copy of your paper. 
     
    4. Commercial uses 
     
    You may ​not​ use this software in a commercial enterprise and you may not use the name “Duckietown” or our logo 
    connected to a commercial enterprise without written authorization of the Duckietown Foundation.  
     
    If you would like to use this software in a commercial endeavor, you must contact us at ​[email protected]​ to 
    arrange a licensing agreement. The revenue from these licensing agreements will go to the Duckietown Foundation in 
    order to provide technical improvements, technical support, and to further disseminate the Duckietown Platform. 
     
    5. Contributions 
     
    We welcome patches and are happy to incorporate them. We ask you that you assign the copyright to us, so that we 
    may release all software with the same license (this license) and it is easy for us to enforce the guidelines above. 
     
    Appendix - Media Compliance Rule for producing videos and other media 
     
    You are welcome to produce and distribute photos and videos of your Duckiebots doing awesome stuff, provided 
    that: 
    a) proper attribution to the Duckietown Project is given in the photos and videos; 
    b) the robots and the Duckietown Environment pictured are compliant with the Duckietown specifications as 
    seen in the official appearance specifications. 
     
    What we want to avoid is that pictures of non-compliant robots or environments make life difficult for others, as they 
    might try to copy a wrong appearance.  
     
    In particular, note that a compliant Duckiebot has a duckie on top; and a compliant Duckietown Environment has a 
    minimum density of 3 duckies per square meter. Therefore, it is absolutely forbidden to post videos of Duckiebots 
    and Duckietown Environments without duckies. We are happy to provide the duckies free of charge.
