Distance Learning

With Distance Learning Remote Experiments, professors can enhance a lecture with live demonstration, students can access laboratories after hours, and researchers can share costly equipment and collaborate on research. This page offers ideas, suggestions, and examples of successful Distance Learning solutions implemented with National Instruments hardware and software to help you in your online career.

Online Tutorial

This technical tutorial teaches you how to implement the LabVIEW 6.1 standard remote panels feature to develop and launch a remote laboratory over the Internet. Specifically, we provide a brief overview of remote laboratories, demonstrate the usefulness of remote panels, and provide an example application.

Live Experiments

National Instruments has created several Live Experiments using LabVIEW Remote Panels. These experiments are live demonstrations that offer visual feedback as well as documentation to recreate the experiment. You can log on to any experiment and actually control the program using a standard Web browser.
