A web-based virtual and remote laboratory environment is developed, realized and proposed for real time control and monitoring of a mobile robot in an indoor environment. In this laboratory, a real time and continuous video stream of indoor laboratory environment is viewed by wireless IP camera mounted to the ceiling. The localization of the robot is also implemented using this IP camera. In this environment, a virtual target and virtual obstacles are located anywhere on the video image taken by the user. The robot is guaranteed to arrive at the virtual target avoiding virtual obstacles using the shortest path. The video stream of the robot’s navigation is monitored through the web environment. The robot is controlled by a BeagleBoard-xM single board computer. The PC web server symmetrically communicates with the other web server on the BeagleBoard-xM, executing developed application software. Since genetic algorithms generate alternative solutions, it is utilized as a path planning algorithm. Parameters such as population size and maximum generation of genetic algorithms applied to get the shortest path for the robot are tuned via the web-based virtual laboratory environment. The robot is also controlled manually through the web environment. At the conclusion of the experiments, the results are monitored on the web-based virtual laboratory environment. A low-cost mobile robot virtual remote laboratory is designed and implemented for engineering education in this paper. Consequently, survey and some experimental works, of the usability and performance of the RRC-Lab (remote robot control-laboratory) system are confirmed by students.

基于Web的工程教育虚拟移动机器人实验室的设计与实现

开发、实现并提出了一种基于网络的虚拟和远程实验室环境，用于在室内环境中实时控制和监测移动机器人。在该实验室中，室内实验室环境的实时连续视频流通过安装在天花板上的无线网络摄像机进行查看。机器人的定位也是使用这个 IP 摄像头实现的。在这种环境下，虚拟目标和虚拟障碍物位于用户拍摄的视频图像上的任何位置。保证机器人以最短路径避开虚拟障碍物到达虚拟目标。机器人导航的视频流通过网络环境进行监控。机器人由 BeagleBoard-xM 单板计算机控制。PC 网络服务器与 BeagleBoard-xM 上的其他网络服务器对称通信，执行开发的应用软件。由于遗传算法生成替代解决方案，因此它被用作路径规划算法。通过基于网络的虚拟实验室环境调整参数，例如种群大小和用于获得机器人最短路径的遗传算法的最大代数。机器人也通过网络环境手动控制。在实验结束时，在基于网络的虚拟实验室环境中监测结果。本文设计并实现了一个低成本的移动机器人虚拟远程实验室，用于工程教育。因此，调查和一些实验工作，
