The rapid development of educational technologies requires the active involvement of new means and effective teaching methods. One of the innovative tools of learning in the field of robotics is the use of robot simulators in the educational process, which open up many opportunities for better assimilation of knowledge and development of practical skills among students. Robot simulators are software complexes that allow you to visualize and simulate the behavior of real robots. With these tools, students can: • program robots in a virtual environment, test code and debug without the risk of damaging real equipment; • to study robotics and the principles of robot operation, exploring different types of sensors, actuators and algorithms of robot behavior; • to solve problems in various fields, such as production automation, logistics, construction, etc.; • practices your skills in a safe and controlled environment. Among the benefits of using robotic simulators are next: • availability for a large number of students, as simulators are much cheaper than real jobs; • safety, as the virtual environment eliminates the risks associated with working with real robots; • flexibility that allows students to work at their own pace, explore different scenarios and experiment with different parameters; • interactivity with a realistic 3D-environment and visualization. This work presents an overview and analysis of software that allows modeling robot control systems and simulating their operation for various algorithms. A review and analysis of the proposed software tools for simulating robotic systems, which are used to teach bachelor's and master's degree students in the specialties of "Computer Science", "Information Systems", "Industrial Mechanical Engineering" and "Applied Mechanics" and have proven their effectiveness and effectiveness in distance learning at the Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture.
