This paper presents a general overview of education of robot hardware architecture and software. A well supplied microcontroller laboratory is needed for mobile robot development. The paper examines the software and hardware used for microcontroller/robotics laboratory. The work presents a project to enhance the microcontroller/robotics education of informatics and electronics engineering students using local and remote microcontroller/ microprocessor laboratory. Solutions over the internet open the possibilities for the distance learning.
