Students are also required to go to laboratories, which offer the appropriate facilities, according to a strict timetable. For these reasons, the need for alternative methods arises for teaching such as virtual laboratories via the Internet. In this article we present a virtual laboratory that is being applied to robotics teaching which allows the simulation and tele-operation of a robotic arm.
