In the paper, the special concept of teaching through experience was described. The students of informatics were taught the basics of embedded software development even without previous knowledge. Such problematics is very broad while covering the area of electronics, physics, C++ OOP (Object-Oriented Programming), and 3D printing. To achieve this aim, the students were supplied with a special robot kit, which was developed by the authors for this purpose. The robot consisted of three parts - a control unit, a robot's chassis, and an application interface. The control unit was based on an ATMega328p microcontroller, which was programmed through USB/serial interface. The control unit was primarily used for familiarization with the system. It utilized a photoresistor, RGB LED diode, and magnetic buzzer - the peripherals, on which the students learned the programming basics while using the microcontroller …
