This Publication has to be referred as: Pryanichnikov AbstractThe article describes the technology of development of advanced mobile service robots and basic hardware and software elements as well as their use for implementation of the network of associated laboratories-robotariums within the framework of the project called "Intellectual Robotronics" organized by the Central European Branch of the International Academy of Engineering in conjunction with KIAM of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the International Institute of New Education Technologies (IINET) of the Russian State University for the Humanities, the universities of Russia, Croatia and Austria. Within the framework of this network, the access is provided to the entire range of the developed mechatronic devices and mobile robots having systems for remote charging and video stream exchange, and also to 3D-prototyping tools placed in the participating organizations, and to their guidance papers. Mobile robots and their simulation models repeat the basic functionality and appearance of significantly more difficult and expensive robotic complexes (RTC) of the Ministry of Emergency Situations and other agencies, which allows for the effective conducting of training of the operators of such RTCs and the development of integrating software ("middleware"), creating the knowledge representation technology and automatic generation of action plans.

We consider the problems of creating a training situation center for training management skills of mobile robotic systems control based on the concept of territorially distributed laboratory. This task can be efficiently performed by means of three-dimensional rendering system and software and hardware support for information analysis and management activities. The base concept of approach is the real-time virtual studio that provides computer simulation of threedimensional scenes and motion of actual mobile robots, real-time operation with multiple cameras and have powerful and fast 3D and stereoscopic real-time rendering. We have developed 3D scenes corresponding to places of the intended use of robotic devices and additionally several polygonal 3D models of external artifacts, textures for them and finally recorded animation layers with appropriate controllers of the virtual studio. Mobile robots moved against a background of the chromakey green screen in different places of distributed laboratory are incorporated into the virtual network laboratory on the basis of VPN-tunnels through the Internet by special software.
