Summary

• What is new: A low-cost, scalable remote labs solution using IoT components, portable hardware, and a comprehensive software architecture that includes live streaming without dedicated servers and automated status checks via computer vision.
• Why this is important: Existing remote labs are expensive and difficult to scale, limiting access for students, especially in developing countries.
• What the research proposes: A new, affordable and scalable RLabs solution that uses IoT to make lab experiments like Vanishing Rod and Focal Length more accessible and engaging for students.
• Results: The RLabs platform was positively received by students, improving both learning experiences and usability, and was effective across a variety of hardware and IoT platforms.
