Abstract. The paper describes an educational mobile application that controls the 3D model of towercopter using augmented reality for smartphones. It is developed using the ARCore technology that allows insertion of 3D objects into a real space via smartphone or tablet. The application serves as a simple guide for a real device which is placed in laboratory and enables to create simulations based on user input data. The application interface is connected with Scilab API simulation module that provides data for 3D model animations. Users can set their own controller parameters into the predefined control structures. Application is a part of virtual laboratory and can help students with understanding of problems connected with education process.
