Design Software: System of Objects, Real-Time Simulation

[joblafors]

Hello!
I asked my question in "Computer / Software" tread, but no one was able to help me, so I`l try asking here..
I am in need for software where I could design some system of objects (electro motors, moving parts, custom modeled parts etc. ) with whom I could see "real life" simulation of that system.
There should be some programming capability in software, I would need some real time accelerometer output and motor control. Could someone point me to software that would be best for my needs.
Thank you.

I haven't used it myself (yet), but perhaps you may find Scilab useful. Part of it is Xcos which seems to be able to do what you want.
