AB  - This paper explores the experience of implementing virtual reality (VR) project activities for student learning industrial robotics and automation in manufacturing. This work provides an innovative solution for optimizing learning effectiveness and improving educational outcomes through the development of VR models that can be used and integrated into the existing robotics laboratory. We explore methods of using ABB RobotStudio to allow students to program traditional industrial robots using the project-based learning approach. Key features of the VR add-on, and how they allow the user to move a virtual robot end effector to generate a tool path is described. A comparison between the conventional approach of robot programming using the teach pedant and the VR-based approach is then presented. The project provides students with opportunities to work with industrial robots. Students complete structured laboratory activities that introduce them to different aspects of applied robotics, including the design of end-effector tooling and fixtures for different tasks. The goal is to apply these VR simulators to train undergraduate engineering, engineering technology students, and professionals in robotics and automation education; and to offer experiential learning opportunities in 3D modeling, simulation, and visualization for robotics and automation. The students were given multiple robotics projects in these courses on robotics and mechatronics. VR robotics enables students to explore innovative approaches to integrate theoretical knowledge with practical applications, enhancing information retention, and promoting critical thinking.
