The process of robot creation is extremely expensive. It requires a lot of expenses to build a prototype and mistakes in design can lead to several rebuilds. No less expensive is a challenge of designing control program for the robot, as testing it with a prototype can cause harm to the construction or even destroy it. This document focuses on the simulation of robot behavior in virtual environment. Egzisting simulation environmets, that allow programming and simulating of control scripts, are being explored here. A lot of attention is paid to simplicity of the software interface and possible usage for children to learn and enjoy programming. The author makes a proposal for new simulation environment and implements the software. The research is made on the implementation of control programs for robots. The way how the control program is implemented is compared to an egzisting comercial simulation environment – Webots. The two specifications for robot design and behavior is provided and the solutions for control programs are designed and compared. The modification in robot specifications are brought up and those solutions are modified to comply with the change. Finally the designed software is presented and explained. The chapter contains user guide, a specification for graphical user interface and an explanation of it‘s usage.
