Web Based Simulation and Remote Triggered Laboratory for Robots

  • Conference paper
CAD/CAM, Robotics and Factories of the Future

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering ((LNME))

Abstract

This paper describes a web based virtual laboratory developed to facilitate learning robot kinematics and control through simulation and online control of some well-known robots in real-time with vision feedback system. The web based self-learning content and tools can be used in engineering education for both graduates and research scholars. Using Java Server Pages (JSPs), WAMP and Python, we provide a standard and robust platform for client environment. The website primarily addresses the delivery of basic concepts in robot kinematics.
