Abstract(s)

Industrial Manipulators were becoming used more and more at industries since the third industrial revolution. Actually, with the fourth one, the paradigm is changing and the collaborative robots are being accepted for the community. It means that smaller manipulators with more functionalities have been used and installed. New approaches have appeared to teach students according to the new robot’s capabilities. The DOBOT robot is an example of that since it captivates the student’s attention with an uncomplicated programming front-end, tools, grippers and extremely useful for teaching STEM. This paper proposes a dynamic based simulation environment that can be used to teach, test and validate solutions to the DOBOT robot. By this way, the student can try and validate, at their homework without the real robot, the developed solutions and further test them at the laboratory with the real robot. Currently, remote testing and validation without the use of a real robot is an advantage. The comparison of the provided simulation environment and the real robot is presented in the approach.
