The study of robotic manipulators is the main goal of Industrial Robotics Class, part of Control Engineers training course. There is a difficulty in preparing academic practices and projects in the area of robotics due to the high cost of specific educational equipment. The practical classes and the development of projects are very important for engineers training, it is proposed to use simulation software in order to provide practical experience for the students of the discipline. In this context, the present article aims to expose the use of the Robot Operation System (ROS) as a tool to develop a robotic arm and implement the functionality of forward and inverse kinematics. Such development could be used as an educational tool to increase the interest and learning of students in the robotics discipline and to expand research areas for the discipline.
