Summary/Abstract: In this paper, the authors wish to point at the means to integrate the software component for the modelling and simulation in a real-life environment of a mini robot mechanical structure with autonomous wheeled movement, a robotic structure used in military security applications. The “Robo Security” mini robot designed and built within the Management and Technology Research Center – the Advanced Logistics Technologies Laboratory within the “Nicolae Bălcescu” Land Forces Academy of Sibiu, can represent an additional element of a security structure, used for the relay and constructive jamming of a communication system. In order to demonstrate its usefulness, in terms of security features, the mini robot under study has in its structure a wire, which is controlled by an android system. The paper highlights the steps necessary for the 3D modelling and simulation of movement of the mechatronic system using several programming languages under several software such as: Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, by implementing libraries specific to programming within the OpenGL software using the C++ programming language as well as the MATLAB R2011b by using a peripheral device which captures the signal and transmits it to a special file in real time.
