Abstract
Development of automation and robotics causes a need for implementing an innovative approach towards teaching. It is especially important for vocational education, as for this an expensive equipment is needed to train within real-life setups. Thus, AR and VR technologies give an opportunity to decrease costs, while keeping a high level of course-taught skills and knowledge. The paper consists of an overview of possible applications of virtual and mixed realities for education purposes and a presentation of MILAN project. This involves a description of key ideas for skill-transfer based on e-learning platform using various ICT solutions; VR and AR among others. Also, already implemented VR methods in two robotics-training cases are presented.
