Abstract

Considering the weaknesses in the current higher vocational school (HVS) electrical engineering experiment course, we put forward a scheme for building the Web-based virtual experiment system. In this paper, we illustrate the design plan and structure of the electrical engineering virtual experiment system, as well as expose the key technology, where both 3DsMax and Virtools are employed to build a virtual experiment system. Particularly, database is used to connect with Virtools, making the entire experiment system enjoy high authenticity and interactivity. Practices show that this system can assist students in mastering their experimental skills and improving efficiency.
