The AMS Abot Simulator is a virtual platform that provides an immersive robotics learning experience without requiring physical hardware. It enables users to design, code, and control virtual robots in a realistic, interactive environment using a built-in robot builder and block-based programming.
The simulator is designed for students, educators, and robotics enthusiasts who want to develop problem-solving, logical thinking, and coding skills. It is accessible to beginners and advanced learners alike.
π Accessible Anywhere: No hardware requiredβlearn robotics from any device.
π Hands-On Safe Learning: Experiment with robot design and coding in a risk-free virtual environment.
π Structured Curriculum: Progressive learning levels from beginner to advanced projects.
π Real-Time Feedback: Visualize and refine code execution instantly.
π Log in to the Avishkaar website using your phone number or social media account.
π Open AMS and select βCode with Simulators.β
π€ Choose βAbot Advancedβ to start working on robotic projects.
AMS Abot Simulator offers three progressive levels:
π° Level 1: Basic programming concepts and robot movement (ideal for beginners).
βοΈ Level 2: Sensor integration and automated robot behavior.
π Level 3: Real-world problem-solving through advanced robotics projects.
π Select a project and click βStart.β
𧩠Drag and drop robot parts into the highlighted sections to complete the build.
π Ensure motor and sensor connections are correctly mapped (e.g., M1 for the right motor, M2 for the left motor).
π¨βπ» Click βLetβs Goβ to enter the coding interface.
π Use block-based programming to control robot movements and actions.
β³ Adjust movement duration, direction, and sensor interactions.
π₯ Run the simulation to test robot behavior in real-time.
π― Basic Movement (Level 1): Move the robot forward, backward, left, and right using timed commands.
π¦ Object Detection (Level 2): Use an IR sensor to detect obstacles and respond accordingly.
π€ Line Follower (Level 3): Program the robot to follow a black line using dual IR sensors.
Projects can be π reloaded and improved
upon at any time.
The simulator supports STEM learning by teaching geometry (angle-based turns), physics (speed and force sensors), and computational thinking. It is ideal for robotics curriculums at different education levels.
