Towards distance teaching: a remote laboratory approach for modbus and IoT experiencing

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Remote laboratories are of extraordinary importance for students that cannot attend classroom lessons. Once Automation and industrial networks are topics of electrical engineering that should be studied and experimented with by students in a practical way, this paper presents a developed tool that students can use to access the laboratory equipment from outside. It has as an advantage the capacity of handling several students simultaneously, and it is accessible 24 h per day and 7 days per week. The proposed tool also allows students in the classroom to interact with the system. With this proposed tool, connections between Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) with supervision and control of high-level systems such as LabVIEW IDE are possible to program and test. The hardware implementation in the laboratory can be accessed by students to control illumination, heating and window shutter, and sensors to acquire wind speed, temperature, humidity, and CO2, as examples.
