Abstract
In this paper, an architecture is proposed to deliver portable remote online experimentation services. This can benefit the educational and academic sectors in terms of providing remote online accessibility to real experiment setups. Thus, the users can be relieved from geographical and time dependence for the experiment to be conducted. Nowadays, almost all web services leverage the efficiency and prevalence of the REST (Representational State Transfer) architecture. Hence, this proposed remote online service has been implemented in compliance with the RESTful architectural style.Web-based experiments require compatibility with any of the users' portable devices and accessibility at any time. A RESTful architecture can fulfill these requirements. In addition, different experiments can be made available online based on this architecture while sharing the same infrastructure. A case study has been selected to obtain measurements of different force components existing inside wind tunnels. The complete implementation of this system is provided starting from the embedded controller retrieving sensor measurements to the web server development and user interface design.
