Desenvolvimento de uma ferramenta para o ensino de física experimental a distância

Abstract

We present in this paper the development of a system of virtual instrumentation that makes possible the control and collects of data of experiments by Internet, for the use in activities of experimental physics teaching. The system is composed by an interactive set of softwares and hardwares. Three different types of softwares had been created: Client, Communication server and Control Server. These softwares had been developed with the use of the programming languages Object Pascal and C++. Interface electronic circuits had been constructed for the communication between Computer and Experiment. Tests of communication and control/collect of data had been carried with the use of a basic experiment of modern physics. © by the Sociedade Brasileira de Física.
