Abstract
Recently, a huge number of universities worldwide are having their education interrupted, partially or fully by the COVID-19 global pandemic especially teaching laboratories for engineering students. In this paper, an online Mixed Reality (MR) experiment is initiated to serve the electrical and mechanical engineering students during and after the COVID-19 era. The MR approach is based on the use of real measured data which are obtained through normal on-campus experiment operation, where the obtained results are stored for use in online experiments. Hence, both on-campus students and distance (remote students) will get the same outcomes from the experiment. In this paper, a linear positioning control system MR experiment is implemented based on the Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers. The user “student” can control the speed of an aerofoil wing fixed on a controllable positioning carriage, understand analytically and experimentally the open-loop control system, compare the results with the closed-loop control system using the P, PI, PID classical controllers and is evaluated throughout a self-assessment. The experiment is fully designed and implemented using NI LabView software using NI myRIO-1900 embedded controller device to control the aerofoil horizontal movement and manipulate the PID gain parameters.
