Abstract
Nowadays, a lot of educational and research objectives can be achieved through the use of configurable, small, low-cost mobile robot kits. Using these systems, students must deal with topics like teamwork, real-world issues, integrated systems building, multidisciplinary information, etc. This paper will propose a low cost mobile robot control laboratory. The laboratory is based on the LEGO Mindstorms programmed with LegOS. A new communication system based on a Bluetooth chip between the computer and the mobile robots is proposed. With this environment a wide variety of robot activities can be developed due to its flexibility, power, and simple use.
