Abstract
Robotics is an emerging field in the area of intelligent
systems. Design, construction and operation of robots are
crucial parts of Robotics and this should be the domain of
teaching Robotics for students that are introduced to this field
for the first time. This paper proposes an approach of teaching
Robotics to computer science students. Robotic systems
should be taught in four different abstraction levels: a
mathematical abstraction level, a model abstraction level and
a hardware abstraction level and the hardware itself. Each
level is based on the previous, but each shows a different
perspective of robotic systems. Mathematical programs,
modelling tools and software for controlling real robotic
systems, as well as the robot hardware itself, are the tools
students have to use while studying Robotics.
