In
a real computerised laboratory, hands-on
exercises are based on a data acquisition
system, sensors, actuators and various
accessories. The Comlab project has deveoped
and continues to develop novel "state of the art" equipment emphasising low-cost solutions. ComLab courses can also employ commercially
available products or can combine these
products with ComLab laboratory equipment.
Most ComLab laboratory products are or will be available for purchase. For some
essential products, complete production
documentation (know-how) will be available
on the web-site to enable autonomous learners
make their own DAQ systems, sensors and
actuators.
New laboratory equipment under development can be divided into two main groups:
