Practical experiences using RobUALab.ejs: a virtual and remote laboratory for Robotics e-learning

This paper describes some practical experiences on Industrial Robotics using RobUALab.ejs, an interactive virtual and remote laboratory developed at University of Alicante (Spain). This system is mainly intended for an educational use and its advanced features permits students to easily acquire methods, skills and experience related to Robotics. Its architecture is based on a Java applet application, which provides users a distance training environment with a real scenario of a robotic manipulator as well as an advanced interface to program it at any time from anywhere.
