Abstract

This paper proposed a kind of education robotics system for practical course whose object is to offer a chance to different levels students to acquire knowledge about robotics. Learning process will involve the students, as they can design and build their own mobile robot according to their ideas, program and test it personally. The new system features the more flexible mechanical parts which are based on LEGO bricks and our new designed output and input bricks as a physical background, and the embedded software hierarchy. Students can program the robot using iconic interface environment and normal programming language such as Java and C according to their knowledge background. During this process, they will learn the sensorial technology and motor-control methods. At the same time, students can overview the process using a web-camera and can interrupt in case of malfunctions. This new system is more flexible and suitable for students to understand all aspects of robotics technology.
