Sprite Animation Toolkits for iPhone

Question

Does anyone know of any good (and preferably free) Sprite Animation Toolkits/Libraries for iOS development?

This library should be able to handle the collision detection and the movement of the sprites. Back in the 90's there was a Pascal library called Sprite Animation Toolkit by Ingemar Ragnemalm that handled a lot of the heft to create animations and the such. I am just wondering if there is anything like that in the iOS world?

Do you have any requirements for this piece of software? Or do you just want to make texture atlases? — John McDonald, Jan 11 '12 at 20:39

Cocos2d-iphone is a great open source framework for iOS
Cocos2d-x will give you automatic porting for Android so you might want to check it as well
Both are based on Open GL which is another open source graphic library
Box2d is also a great open source resource for 2d graphics

While it's not specifically a sprite animation library, is Cocos 2d any use to you? You can also look at the source which might help you create a sprite animation library of your own.
