“…In that case, local Data Acquisition (DAQ) circuits can be implemented and will communicate directly with the server, without using instruments like digital multimeter or oscilloscopes. This operating mode is close to other proposals in the literature, such as [7,[10][11][12]23].…”

“…The state of the art is the focus for two main topics: open source remote control laboratory and open source Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA). As remote laboratory is mainly developed by university or training center, the open source and publication aspects are automatically considered, for instance, [8] or [9] and more recently [10,11]. In [12], a remote laboratory for control education is implemented using common communication and programming languages: HTML 5, JavaScript for client side, JSON for data transfer, and PHP/MysSQL for the server side.…”

Nowadays, communication and web services are part of our lives, including education, and e-learning applications are used more and more. However, teaching in engineering sciences requires an important amount of practical experiments. Hence, remote laboratories are an attractive solution, offering new tools for both teachers and learners. Our objective is to propose a fully open source remote laboratory for generic practice, in all fields of engineering education or applied sciences. This work is based on an open source Supervisory Control and a Data Acquisition platform programmed with Python. Interoperability is one of the main issues considered here to ensure a wide compatibility with multi-communication protocols and multi-instruments used in practical labwork.

“…The VR training system aimed to provide a situational learning experience to teachers related to substance use among the students. Research has exhibited that VR has the potential to provide ubiquitous learning experiences, which can be implemented by using remote laboratories, computer, and web‐based simulations, interactive learning through 3D models [9,13,32]. VR‐based simulated environments have better learning experiences in terms of user interface and experience when compared with two dimensional (2D) virtual/remote laboratories [14].…”

Engineering laboratory courses have a significant role in building practical knowledge and enhancing the skills of the students. While working in electronics laboratories, students often operate complicated laboratory equipment and juggle through a set of multiple knobs and buttons to configure the equipment(s). It takes a lot of practice to master the skill of operating the laboratory equipment and it becomes difficult for students to operate the equipment without any prior experience. Virtual reality (VR) is the emerging technology and has the potential to provide a better learning experience to the students. In this paper, a VR‐based learning environment (VLE) is developed, which aims to give prior training to the engineering students about the electronics laboratory hardware. An experimental study was conducted to measure the effectiveness of VR on student knowledge development, learning motivation, and cognition. The study was conducted among the 65 engineering students and they were randomly divided into two groups: treatment group (N = 33) and control group (N = 32). The students of the treatment group were taught with the VR approach and students of the control group were taught with a conventional teaching approach. The outcomes of the experiment indicate that VR has a significant positive impact on student knowledge, learning motivation, and cognition. By interacting with the three‐dimensional virtual models of the laboratory instruments, students were able to demonstrate an improved understanding of the laboratory hardware. Also, the treatment group students mentioned that they were not worried about the equipment malfunction that has further enhanced their confidence and reduced the cognitive load.

“…In control and dynamics course which is taught in electrical, mechanical, or chemical engineering, several devices have been proposed for take-home laboratory activites. Some of them are known to use a thermal system as their topics (Barbosa, 2020) (Cui et al, 2020) (Park et al, 2020) (Tran et al, 2019). The reason for selecting a thermal process is because it is relatively easy to create a device that is capable of generating heat.…”

Pada paper ini, kami membahas mengenai suatu divais yang telah dikembangkan untuk menunjang proses belajar di tingkat universitas. Divais yang kami kembangkan dilengkapi dengan sebuah pemanas dan sebuah kipas. Kami menggunakan metode kesetimbangan energi untuk memodelkan divais tersebut, dimana nilai dari kapasitas panas, emissivity, dan koefisien transfer panas dihitung. Selain itu, kami juga mencari hubungan antara kecepatan putar kipas dengan perubahan koefisien transfer panas dengan menggunakan metode optimisasi. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa model kesetimbangan energi dapat menghampiri keluaran sebenarnya dengan sangat baik dengan absolute error sebesar 9ºC. Pada tahap validasi, niliai absolute error yang diperoleh menjadi lebih tinggi, yakni 16ºC dan terjadi pada temperature tinggi. Sementara itu, kecepatan putar kipas berpengaruh secara linear terhadap perubahan koefisien transfer panas.
