In their own words
Science Remote Laboratory
Science Remote Laboratory is a free web platform for virtual science experiments in university education. Its live library contains 34 experiments spanning physics, chemistry, biology, IoT, and robotics. Physics activities include an MNA circuit solver and an RK4 engine for mechanics simulations. IoT work uses a pseudocode interpreter for simulated sensors, MQTT, input and output, PID loops, and safety limits. Browser-based 3D laboratories use BabylonJS and Havok physics. Sessions persist, progress is saved, and multiple students can work in one lab simultaneously. The laboratories run in a browser without installation. The platform is presented for universities, public health organizations, and research institutions. Phase 01 is live; scientific visualization is listed as in development, with later phases upcoming. The Free to explore plan costs nothing. The project is headquartered in Harare, Zimbabwe.
