A remote experiment is a real experiment with real laboratory instruments and equipment that can be controlled by a teacher or a student or any user from their computer through the Internet.
The remote experiment at Department of Experimental Physics, Palacky University in Olomouc is available free (without registration, 24 hours and 7 days a week).
Remotely controlled experiments have become a widespread tool for teaching physics at the university level of education. The use of a remote experiment is most beneficial and helpful in the domains where it is impossible to demonstrate the real experiment or where there is no appropriate equipment available. Our aim is not the replacement of the real experiment by the remote experiment but finding new alternatives in teaching science.
