Remote Laboratory System with an Inverse Pendulum

This paper describes a remote laboratory system via the Internet. Experiments are indispensable to making students aware of the real system and making them mindful of the gap between theory and practice, since the control results are strongly influenced by disturbances and sensor noises, the accuracy of the measurement instruments and the un-modelled dynamics of the pant. The experiment system using inverse pendulum was set up in a laboratory and connected to the internet. Student can run the experiment just by accessing the Web page.
