Remote laboratory netlab for effective interaction with real equipment over the internet

Remote laboratories (RL) are becoming a common educational environment at a growing number of universities worldwide. However, there are no standards guiding the development of remote laboratories, so each of about 120 currently existing RLs is a unique development. In this paper we do not introduce a standard, but we rather showcase an effective example that has been developed at the University of South Australia (UniSA) and adopted elsewhere, so it may possibly be proposed as a standard graphical user interface (GUI) for effective interaction between users and instruments in remote laboratories.
