Collective Behavior Simulation of Mobile Robots Using Lego NXT Sets

Abstract

For response to the challenges of Industry 4.0 a new subject the “Simulation of Multi-agent Mobile Robots” was introduced into the curriculum of Mechatronic Engineering MSc course. It was an important aspect to make the study program for practice-oriented. Lego NXT sets were used for the simulation collective behavior of mobile robots. The paper summarizes the experiences of these practices.
