RobertaSim – LEGO Mindstorms RCX Simulator – Free Download for Roberta Teachers

http://roberta-home.de/sites/default/files/images/Roberta-Sim.artikelbild.JPG
From now on the LEGO Mindstorms RCX Simulator – RobertaSim – is ready for download for all certified and registered Roberta Teachers on the internal pages of the Roberta portal.

RobertaSim can be used to simulate LEGO Mindstorms robots (of the Robotics Invention System 2.0 series). The software enables the user to program a virtual robot with the usual programming languages (RIS/RCX code and NQC). The behavior of the real robot to be expected can be observed in real time on the monitor. The virtual robot’s operation has been adapted from the one of the real robot.
