Abstract

This paper presents a distributed platform composed of a team of mobile robots so that they can be controlled by the students through Internet. With this platform, a remote environment is created so that the students can carry out different experiments over several available equipments in the lab, with a flexible schedule. This way, the student can design and test different control algorithms and experience over the mobile robots in the laboratory. Currently, there are 3 kinds of robots available; each one is accessible by the students for monitoring and supervision tasks and also for control tasks using a common interface of communication, in a transparent way from the point of view of the user.
