The purpose of this work is to create a simulation environment for testing user-uploaded robot-swarm algorithms to get preliminary trajectories and to detect runtime errors in the algorithm. To accomplish this goal, the following, the following tasks are considered: identifying mathematical model behind robot movements and stepper motor, selecting appropriate methods to detect unknown motor constants, environment creation for user made algorithms execution, backend, and frontend side creation for web-app, including algorithm visualization component, selecting methods, and comparing simulated and real-world algorithms trajectories. The result of the work is a functional web app, where users can execute their algorithms both in virtual and real-world environments.
