The technology is advancing so unstoppable even in times of crisis. Sometimes it is difficult to take advantage of it because in no time a new and improved version of the above techniques appears to continue this progress. Within educational technologies aimed at enhancing remote laboratories is the same. From HTTP to websockets communication protocols the technology offers new alternatives to improve bidirectional communications between the client and the server. This paper shows how an integrated development initially HTTP has evolved to lead to a websockets-supported system for controlling a servomotor. The introduction of this communication technology is simplified to allow reuse existing laboratories, thus allowing reuse HTTP previous architectures, hardware and services, including a more advanced environment that uses websockets as communications support. How couldn't it be otherwise, the characteristic of the IoT hardware, in this case Arduino and Raspberry Pi, has been essential in this task. The goal: to reuse existing remote laboratories improve their communication protocol and expand the possibilities of client-server interaction retaining its character as an educational tool.

“…At the same time, and given the importance of university education as social engine for business, economic and as point of integration, UNED has always tried to bring students to the appropriate level for their access to the labour market as fast and skilled as possible, [5], especially in certain areas such as engineering, [6].…”

The ability for accessing learning tools at any time and from anywhere is highly increasing. Technologies such as Internet and mobile devices provide universal integration of teaching and learning. For scientific or engineering subjects, the use of real resources through on line laboratories is another step towards bringing the students to the practical laboratory sessions. These platforms show how teacher and student share a common work space in which they work together to solve problems. UNED (Spanish University for Distance Education) is working on the development of techniques that facilitate the building of remote laboratories and their access, both for students and for teachers. Current experience shows that the interaction of the students with these tools makes them more receptive to learning, regardless of their age. It also helps them to understand more easily abstract concepts in engineering and science subjects, associating these abstract concepts with daily life. It is also relevant that students can commit mistakes without any real risk. Moreover as the system will facilitate the building of customized reusable laboratory practices for teachers, these will be motivated to use them in their classrooms whenever possible. Both effects reinforce learning and reaffirm the position of teacher-student couple.
