A virtual laboratory for teaching robotics

Technical teaching often requires the use of expensive laboratory materials which are frequentlybeyond the reach of many students. Students are also required to go to laboratories, which offer theappropriate facilities, according to a strict timetable. For these reasons, the need for alternativemethods arises for teaching such as virtual laboratories via the Internet. In this article we present avirtual laboratory that is being applied to robotics teaching which allows the simulation andtele-operation of a robotic arm.
