摘要：AbstractThis paper describes a recently deployed concept of Laboratory of Things at our institute. It uses a laboratory network of experimental devices and processes from the field of automatic control. Paper gives a technical description of an architecture of theeLabnetwork, hardware components such as I/O server, software, communication principles and, overall operation of the solution. The laboratory instruments are provided as network services via several different protocols and access methods that can be used in educational process with minimal effort. Students can work with laboratory equipment using their personal computers without the need of specialized interfacing hardware. Several technological processes and experimental devices are currently provided. The paper also describes connections betweeneLaband MATLAB.
