Abstract :
This paper presents the structure and the content of a project-based laboratory in software engineering for autonomous robots. Even if the theory and practice of software development for robotic has been the subject of several editions of the Robotics course at the University of Bergamo, the presented laboratory has been offered for the first time during the 2013 academic year. A preliminary evaluation of the laboratory is discussed in the conclusions.
