Virtual and remote control laboratory development

This work describes Internet functions that include video file generation and real-time control as MWS (MATLAB Web server) features, which are useful for undergraduate courses. With these functions, using virtual processes, which in turn allow video animations of simulated processes, can enhance virtual laboratories. Furthermore, MWS allows the implementation of remote laboratories operating in batch mode. WinCom or any other suitable software can be used to implement online laboratories. These methodologies provide a straightforward approach for the developer of the teaching material, the control engineering lecturer, and a low-cost option for the student user.
