While software packages have many advantages (flexibility,low cost, ability to simulate complex circuits quickly, ability to determine trends from changinginputs or components), they do not teach practical skills, such as assembling circuits on abreadboard, soldering, component handling, safety, and operation of test equipment.A third solution employed in many universities is to offer real-time practical exercises that canbe performed by remote control.14-18 This approach became popular as the Internet and itsapplications grew.

For instance, many sophisticatedsensors (e.g. laser scanners) and the DAQ hardware are expensive, often the sensors and DAQhardware and peripheral devices require modifications for being reused in other applications andmost experimental setups need to be calibrated before each measurement.
