Control theory can be abstract and mathematically complex to students. Educational hardware can help students reinforce the concepts and observe the real-world applications. Most importantly, they can be used to foster students’ interest in the subject so that they are motivated to learn more. In this work-in-progress paper, a low-cost Arduino temperature control kit for performing system modeling and real-time feedback control experiments is presented. The laboratory courses based on these experimental systems can be used to consolidate the knowledge of modeling and controller design for the students, improving students’ engagement through online means. The portable hardware provide students with the opportunities to troubleshoot and tune a control system remotely.
