Make it Open - Improving Usability and Availability of an FPGA Remote Lab

Remote labs for students' design experiments are available in engineering education for several years. To ensure students' acceptance it is important to have an appropriate and stimulating user interface. So the usage and control of a remote lab has to be devised from the students' point of view. The following contribution describes the FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) remote lab of the Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University and the design of its user interface from students' perspective.
