Purpose: of this paper: The paper presents a concept of a system for off-line programming, simulation and remote supervision of the Mitsubishi Movemaster RV-M1 robot. Design/methodology/approach: In the software development process a robot installed in institute's laboratory has been used. The software has been coded in a high level programming language in a manner that allows future improvements. Findings: As a result of the work, an initial version of software has been created. It has been developed for Windows platform. Research limitations/implications: The initial version of software has been dedicated to Movemaster RV- Ml and only this model is available for simulation purposes in virtual environment. Visualization processor recognizes only selected commands of MELFA BASIC. Future aims include creation of more flexible form of the software, which could be used on different operating system platforms and can handle other types of robots. Practical implications: Presently, the software is used internally for didactic purposes, during conduction of laboratory classes. Originality/value: Existing commercial systems are more or less hermetic. Developed software is intended to use standards for model representation and simulation (like OpenGL API).
