For example, in one laboratory the students need to connect two sine waves intothe left and right channels of a sound card, respectively, and create a dial tone generator(see Figure 2). An incomplete source code (without the highlighted statements) isprovided and the students need to complete and test the code by themselves. Thisexperiment does not require USRP front, therefore it can be done on any computer with asound card and an Ubuntu operating system. 4 Figure 2: Python Code for a Dial Tone GeneratorIV) GNU Radio and USRP Implementation.

onlineeducation offers a variety of resources and focuses primarily on teaching the fundamentaltheories and concepts, one disadvantage is the lack of hands-on experience and direct interaction[1]. Particularly in engineering education, where abstract engineering concepts ideally can bebetter understood by doing the related hands-on activities such as laboratory experiments. Tosolve the issue of the practical training shortage and the lack of hands-on experience with onlineeducation, VR takes the learning experience to a next level in terms of interaction andengagement. VR refers to an artificial world that replicates the real world environment generatedby computers, and that simulates the physical presence of a user in the virtual environment [2].With the
