Detailed notes

- In engineering education different experimental exercises are provided to students in order to improve the teaching level and provide better understanding of theoretical materials. These exercises might be implemented using educational software tools. In this paper, an educational software tool called EDURobot has been developed to enhance the understanding of robotics for undergraduate and graduate students in computer and electrical and electronic engineering departments. The software tool mainly teaches students the navigation problems of a mobile robot avoiding obstacles in a static environment using different algorithms. The simulation environment is of a menu-driven variety where students can draw obstacles of standard shapes and sizes and assign the starting point of the mobile robot. The robot will then navigate among these obstacles without hitting them and reach the goal point given by the user. Parameters associated with the different algorithms may also be changed to observe their effects which will further enable comprehension of characteristics of different path planning algorithms. The program is developed in Visual C# for Windows platforms. Different algorithms employed in the software are potential field, vector field histogram plus and local navigation.
