Abstract

This paper describes the design and the implementation of software-hardware solution that allow Web laboratory experiences with the Michelson Interferometer. The hardware has a TINI (Tiny InterNet Interfaces), a control system given by a PIC microcontroller and a IP camera. The software was implemented with JAVA and the operating system was LINUX. It’s possible with this system to teach the principles and functionalities of the Michelson Interferometer via Web. The idea is that students of remote places can be use laboratory equipment using the Web.
