Remote Access Laboratory (RAL) based learning activities are commonplace in engineering faculties; in other disciplines such activities are not widely used. Practicing safe-installations of intravenous pump driver setups and related clinical reasoning skills are important components for the training of nurses. The aim of this research project is to develop and trial remote access technologies that...
This article presents the development of a monitoring and supervision system using power line communication technology and the data acquisition system. This was done by research and case study at laboratories of Faculdade SATC, using a web microserver with the power line to transmit and receive data through PLC (Power Line Communication) technology as a solution for remote monitoring. The variable...
Scientific education is strongly based on laboratory activities, but today laboratories are radically different with respect to their 20th century precursors. Computer technologies, digital networks and on line learning platforms are exploited increasingly in order to publish teaching materials, course calendars, class news and to support on line discussions, assignments and reviews even for face...
The recent advances in technology have led to the development of a number of laboratories for motion control throughout the world. The increased Internet bandwidth allowed many of them to be used remotely by distant users. The benefit of using a motorised linear stage in the laboratory test bench is that it represents various industrial applications for precise position control. This paper presents...
E-lab is a remote laboratory infrastructure, powered by a specific software framework, that allows to perform experiments and retrieve data from a remote apparatus. The deployment of new experiments on this platform is a complex and demanding process and an integrated overview for it is missing. An overview of e-lab's specifications is presented taking into account software development requirements...
This communication describes the interoperability platform that has been developed at the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) to integrate the access to different virtual and remote laboratories. Up to eleven laboratories that belong to the GilabViR group of interest in virtual and remote laboratories in our University have been analyzed to generate a set of specifications and develop the architecture...
This paper presents a remotely controlled educational experiments setup for Active Noise Control (ANC) and acoustic experiments. The experiments setup is based on the Virtual Instruments Systems in Reality (VISIR) open source platform, National Instruments LabVIEW software and a Digital Signal Processor TMS320C6713 from Texas Instruments. The software development and equipment are controlled remotely...
Currently, virtual/remotes laboratories are often being built to improve learning and researching capabilities in some areas of knowledge. Generally these virtual/remotes laboratories are built from scratch again and again, instead of reusing software and hardware infrastructures. This paper presents a new framework, RVLab, to help developers building flexible and robust server-side virtual and remotes...
The new technological scenarios in digital systems demand the introduction of FPGA very early in digital design curricula. The approach that we present in the paper is based on a new tool that extends the features of Deeds, the design suite for digital circuits developed in our department. The FPGA extension allows students to compile a project generated with Deeds into an FPGA chip, reducing to a...
Within this paper, we will describe a grid concept to realize a universal remote lab infrastructure as well as different operation modes based on this concept. This new infrastructure consists of three parts: an internal serial remote lab bus, a bus protection unit to interface the remote lab bus and to protect it from misuse and damage as well as a protection unit, which protects the physical systems...
Weblabs are spreading their influence in Science and Engineering (S&E) courses providing a way to remotely conduct real experiments. Typically, they are implemented by different architectures and infrastructures supported by Instruments and Modules (I&Ms) able to be remotely controlled and observed. Besides the inexistence of a standard solution for implementing weblabs, their reconfiguration...
The use of laboratories in Engineering Education at universities is an adequate opportunity to implement experiential and research based learning - e.g. in material sciences. Within these laboratories the students have the chance to do own experiments and by that gain own experiences in their learning processes. Recently finished research projects - e.g. like the PeTEX project done by universities...
