Virtual Laboratory is the new concept in the field of Control & Measurement as network technology development, it is used in many university and institute nowadays. It is possible to control and measure the instrument in anywhere, anytime by the use of Virtual Laboratory and we can raise the efficiency of experiment. In this paper, we review the concept and necessity of Virtual Laboratory at first and discuss about how we can implement Virtual Laboratory. Then we design framework of Client-Server based Virtual Laboratory fur operating of remote instrument through network, and finally we suggest system model of Virtual Laboratory capable of controlling & monitoring of instrument.

Virtual Instrument는 컴퓨터를 Main controller로 두어 사용자가 필요로 하는 요소들을 연결하여 컴퓨터 속의 가상 공간에 사용자가 정의한 instrument를 구현하는 것을 그 기본 개념으로 한다. Virtual Instrument를 통하여 사용자는 여러 기능 및 함수를 소프트웨어적으로 추가할 수 있어 기존 방식에 비하여 보다 효율적으로 시스템 업그레이드 및 최적화를 수행할 수 있다. 또한 컴퓨터의 성능이 향상됨에 따라 Virtual Instrument의 성능도 증가하게 되는 기술적 이점을 얻을 수 있고 사용환경이 누구에게나 익숙하기 때문에 작업의 효율을 극대화시킬 수 있다 이러한 여러 효율성에 근거하여 나온 개념이 컴퓨터 기반의 제어 및 모니터링으로써 향후 네트워크 기술을 수용하여 더욱 발전될 것으로 전망되고 있다.

Virtual instruments are the mobile software designed to help users navigate, measure hidden environmental properties, or support various user interactions in a virtual environment. Over the past few years, we have developed several virtual instruments for educational virtual environments. However, the process of constructing virtual instruments is often difficult and time consuming because it requires the developers to understand not only the virtual reality systems but also mobile computing platforms. In this paper, we Int identify a few requirements for the development of virtual instruments. Then, we introduce the VIST (Virtual Instrument Scripting Toolkit), specifically designed for reducing the effort of designing virtual instruments. Finally, we will illustrate some applications of using VIST and then discuss the future research directions.

The computer technology and internet have the potential to provide a highly interactive and powerful learning environment for engineering disciplines. Many academic courses that teach engineering subjects have already begun incorporating virtual instruments as teaching and learning tools. This paper introduces the concept of the virtual instrument and reports some of the LabVIEW software applications in several universities. Finally the paper contemplates the future trends on the remote laboratory via the internet for engineering education.

In this paper, we propose an analysis of the sound source of virtual orchestral music in detail by using the production technology of sampling and playback, and technical experiments and verification for the most advanced Hollywood Library series of timbre and the timbre production and control technology of Vienna instrument Pro and other softwares, to find their solutions and come up with the best timbre production method for orchestral music from the perspective of the specific design ideas of the productions of virtual orchestral instruments. The so-called virtual orchestral instruments are non-real orchestral instruments, which are based on the imitation of timbre of real orchestral instruments, processed and synthesized through the scientific and technological means, and produced by the use of electronic equipments or computers. The study of virtual timbre production technology is very important, and it is like the study of composers' creative techniques. Not only scientific and advanced timbre production methods can be obtained from the study, but also new ways of future timbre production are expected to be explored.

This paper describes a virtual instrument system with faulty sensor reconstruction mechanism based on personal computer. This system consists of sensor control board using 16bit RISC machine, error signal reconstruction algorithm based on principal component analysis and auto tunned GUI interface according to the attached sensors. USB module is used for fast communication between PC and sensor controller. To show the veridity of the proposed system, the proposed system was applied to the developed sun tracker with 8 solar sensors.

There is always a rhythm in our language and speech. As soon as we speech out, even just simple words and voice we make are edited as various emotions and information. Through this process we succeed or fail in our communication, and it becomes a fun communication or a monotonous delivery. Even with the same music, impression of the play can be different according to each musician' s emotion and their understanding. We 'play' our language in the same way as that. However, I think, people are used to the variety, which is, in fact, the variation of a set format covered with hollow variety. People might have been living loosing or limiting their own creative way to express themselves by that hollow variety. SPACIAL POEM started from this point. This is a new type of 'real-time visual interaction' expressing our own creative narrative as real-time visual by playing a musical instrument which is an emotional human behavior. Producing many kinds of sound by playing musical instruments is the same behavior with which we express our emotions through. There are sensors on each hole on the surface of the musical instrument. When you play it, sensors recognize that you have covered the holes. All sensors are connected to a keyboard, which means your playing behavior becomes a typing action on the keyboard. And I programmed the visual of your words to spread out in a virtual 3D space when you play the musical instrument. The behavior when you blow the instrument, to make sounds, changes into the energy that makes you walk ahead continuously in a virtual space. I used a microphone sensor for this. After all by playing musical instrument, we get back the emotion we forgot so far, and my voice is expressed with my own visual language in virtual space.

In this paper we suggest an effective teaching plan for measurement engineering by utilizing the NI-ELVIS(National Instrument Educational Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation Suite). ELVIS is a development platform for LabVIEW-based design and prototyping environment. It consists of LabVIEW-based virtual instruments, a multifunctional data acquisition device, and a custom-designed benchtop workstation and prototyping board. Therefore it can replace the expensive instruments for the effective education in the area of electrical engineering. This platform can be applicable for the sensor instrumentation engineering study, though it is a multidisciplinary learning including electrical engineering, sensor technology, signal processing and data analysis. We hope this approach can be used for the other educational area related the electrical experimental education.

Virtual Reality is a set of computer technologies which, when combined, provide an interface to a computer-generated world, and in particular, provide such a convincing interface that the user believes he is actually in a three dimensional computer-generated world. This computer generated world may be a model of a real-world object, such as a house; it might be an world that does not exist in a real sense but is understood by humans, such as a chemical molecule or a representation of a set of data; or it might be in a completely imaginary science fiction world. this paper describes the application of boiler digital control system MMI for power plant using virtual reality

This paper proposes the electric stimulus tactile apparatus system(TESTAS) loaded on the hap-tic interface using ultrasonic motors(USMs). To touch the virtual object like wall in graphic, the 6 DOF haptic interface provides force feedback to users as if it is real. But the case of sharp virtual object like a puncture, it could not provided the sense of pain, but only the reaction-force. After the TESTAS had been loaded on this haptic interface. it could Provide not only the force but also the pain to users. To estimate the capability of TESTAS, we did experiments of three cases, one was very sharp, another was dull, the other is continuative contact.
