Abstract

In order to help students to understand robotics concepts, various types of materials are needed, in addition to real robots. It is difficult for all students to perform actual experiments because of the lack of real robots. In order to solve these problems, this paper describes the development of a web-based distance learning system for robotics, which consists of multimedia contents and a 3D (3-dimensional) robot simulator. Students can easily access the multimedia contents and, in this way, understand the concept of robotics. Also, they can use a 3D robot simulator to perform virtual experiments using a virtual robot which can be connected to a real robot.
