Abstract Fuzzy logic controllers have gained popularity in the past few decades with highly successful implementation in many fields. Fuzzy logic enables designers to control complex systems more effectively than traditional methods. Teaching students fuzzy logic in a laboratory can be a time‐consuming and an expensive task. This paper presents a low‐cost educational microcontroller‐based tool for fuzzy logic controlled line following mobile robot. The robot is used in the second year of undergraduate teaching in an elective course in the department of computer engineering of the Near East University. Hardware details of the robot and the software implementing the fuzzy logic control algorithm are given in the paper. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Comput Appl Eng Educ 19: 639–646, 2011
