Portable Digital Remote Labs Designed for the Students Using Inexpensive Hardware and Open Source Prototyping

Abstract

The concepts of engineering education is mainly restricted to the prescribed syllabus for a period of 4 years. Due to this, the growth of practical knowledge among the students for conducting and analysing a particular experiment in a lab duration of 3 h is fragile, depending on his or her understanding capabilities. In order to bring out a change in education pattern this paper throws light on the introduction of PORTABLE REMOTE LABORATORIES which can be easily built by the students to perform digital experiments such as logic gates. This pays a path for developing practical knowledge which often leads to deep understanding of a theoretical concept through the act of performing experiments and adds personal approach in order to gain practicality over the subjects that is prescribed to them. The overall setup highlighted in the paper is less expensive.
