History

RemoteLaboratory.com was founded by Vladimir Lasky in 2008 to continue his 7 years of pioneering work in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Technology, Sydney

Vladimir founded the Remote Laboratory Project in the Faculty of Engineering in 2001, designing an Embedded Systems Remote Laboratory based on the Freescale [Motorola] Coldfire microcontroller for senior undergraduate students undertaking the course “Real-time Operating Systems”.

Since then, 4 additional remote laboratories have been constructed, supporting experiments across a diversity of Engineering fields including Control Theory, Industrial Automation, Civil Engineering and Programmable Logic Devices.

In recognition of his work, he was a recipient of the UTS Teaching Prize in 2005 and a received a citation from the Australian Learning and Teaching Council [Carrick Institute] in 2006, for innovation in Teaching and Learning.

He has presented at the IASTED Conference on Web-based Education (WBE2007), held in Chamonix, France in March 2007 and the 2nd Pan Australian iCampus Workshop held at the University of Queensland St Lucia Campus in July 2007.
