Abstract
In this paper, an architecture of remote laboratory for the college of optoelectronic engineering is proposed. Any university which wants to establish distance education for the college of optoelectronic engineering can use the proposed architecture or hardware and software to manage experimental assignments from any location. There are four main parts of the proposed remote laboratory: remote users, internet, server Setup and laboratory setup. Remote users can use desktop, laptop, tablet or mobile to conduct the experiments remotely. Roles of different types of remote users have also expalined in this paper. A reliable and secure server is considered to implement the system. List of reliability and security issues cosidered to design the system is also mentioned here. Laboratories like 3D Digitization and Modeling lab, 3D Imaging and Metrology of Micro Objects lab, Face/Person Tracking lab, Optical Communications and Networks lab, Visible Light Communication lab, Lab on Laser Technologies, Lab on Infrared Technologies, Lab on Lightings and Displays, Lab on Biophotonics etc will be connected under the main server. At present, the proposed architecture is implemented at Shenzhen University; and 3D Imaging and Metrology of Micro Objects lab is connected to the main server to conduct experiment remotely which is recently tested from the University of Stuttgart, German. The outputs generated from remote users are also described in this paper. The proposed system can be used from website http://210.39.14.102.
