Design and Implementation of IoT Based Remote Laboratory for Sensor Experiments

Abstract

<p class="Default">This article describes the design and implementation of a remote laboratory for learning sensors based experiments and its applications using embedded systems and Internet of Things (IoT) platform. The main objective of this remote laboratory is to enhance the learning on sensors in engineering education and dealing with the industrial automation applications. With the growing IoT platform for automation, the proposed system can monitor the sensor data and allows the learner to work from anywhere and anytime using mobile android application. Thus, learners can develop knowledge on sensors and control algorithms required for the automation industries and then deploy them on the real industrial automation modules.</p>

Reconfigurable Wireless Sensor Node Remote Laboratory Platform with Cloud Connectivity

“…The study conducted by Ramya et al [1] illustrates the concept of the IoT based remote laboratory, which is used for sensor experiments. The authors are using the sensor module for controlling and monitoring the parameters of industrial equipment.…”

“…The authors are using the sensor module for controlling and monitoring the parameters of industrial equipment. They claim that, by using their platform, students can develop knowledge on sensors and then apply them to real industrial automation equipment [1].…”

“…Learning through experimentation is a very essential and helpful component of education today. Traditional laboratories from university or research centers are already used for this purpose, but they have the disadvantage of having a limited capacity to accommodate all students [1]. Because developing new university laboratory facilities require a large financial investment, online laboratories proved to be a viable alternative solution for the learning process in the current era.…”

“…Pengguna dapat mengendalikan motor melalui tombol virtual pada aplikasi sekaligus melakukan monitoring status motor. Pada penelitian lain, sebuah remote laboratory berbasis IoT untuk pengendali dan pemantauan berbagai parameter dalam otomasi industri seperti: proximity sensor test, pemilahan obyek metal dan non-metal [6]. Penelitian menunjukkan hasil yang memuaskan dan mampu mendorong pengembangan sistem otomasi yang lebih inovatif.…”

Work-in-Progress: Developing an IoT-based Engaged Student Learning Environment and Tools for Engineering and Computer Science Programs

“…Ramya et al describe an IoT platform-based remote laboratory for teaching sensors and its applications. Using embedded systems, the team's goal was to allow students to monitor sensor data through a remote mobile application [8]. The authors describe two experimental stations to which the students had access.…”
