  This paper presents a proposed alternative to simulate non-linear dynamical
systems. This has an application in bachelor programs like: Electrical and
mechanical engineering, Networks and Telecommunications engineering, Mechanical
engineering and more, than they are taught in several public universities in
Guerrero state. Commonly, the computer devices used for simulations require of
high hardware capacity to support the simulation software. Moreover, the
simulation software in the majority of the cases is under license permission.
For these reasons, implementing a simulation lab in a public university is very
high cost. Thus, we show an alternative by using a commercial development board
Raspberry Pi supporting the GNU-Octave software, which is a free software, to
simulate non-linear dynamical systems like a 4 grades of freedom SCARA robot
and a rotational inverted pendulum. The comparision of the simulated dynamical
models in both the specialized software and the proposed free software, exhibit
the viability of the proposed alternative.
