QLabs Virtual QBot 2e
Virtual platform for distance and blended undergraduate and advanced robotics courses
QLabs Virtual QBot 2e is a fully instrumented, dynamically accurate virtual twin of a classic Quanser QBot 2e system. It behaves in the same way as the physical hardware and can be measured and controlled using MATLAB®/Simulink® and other development environments. QLabs Virtual QBot 2e can enrich your lectures and activities in traditional labs, or bring credible, authentic model-based lab experiences into your distance and online robotics course.
QLabs Virtual QBot 2e is available as a 12-month, multi-seat subscription. The platform is compatible with the physical QBot 2e curriculum which covers concepts including differential drive, forward, and inverse kinematics, dead reckoning, odometric localization, path planning, obstacle avoidance, image acquisition, processing, and reasoning, localization and mapping, and vision-guided vehicle control.
