Multimedia technology provides a valuable resource to enhance practical teaching and learning experience. The ability to combine practical applications with visualization using the virtual instrumentation and multimedia tool is the advantage of technology-based education. The paper reports the implementation of remote access experimentation for technical education. We present an interesting e-learning technology using new generation Internet based Instrumentation tools. Virtual Instrumentation tools and Internet technologies have been used for developing graphics oriented client-end applications linked to practical laboratory hardware. In addition to the near real time operation of hardware, multimedia tools are used for making the solutions more effective. This paper presents the outcome of an ongoing research in this area exploiting current telematics techniques, which support remote experimentation with real hardware via the Internet.
