Abstract
Given the recent developments of Internet of Things (IoT) researchers and academics are trying to utilize this concept for different innovative applications. One of those applications of IoT is the remote laboratories, where real hardware/software experimentation systems can be controlled and manipulated over the web. During the COVID-19 pandemic, this has become almost essential for academic and research activities. The paper starts with highlighting the necessity and current status of remote laboratories in terms of shortcomings and possible recourse. With these in mind, the second part illustrates an infrastructure of a remote laboratory facility as well as describes the development of a number of prototype remote laboratories that are utilized for academic activities.

Summary
Providing laboratory activities is vital to optimize the learning in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) disciplines. Simulation and multimedia can facilitate a level of educational experience; for effective and meaningful education within the STEM disciplines, a combination of theoretical and laboratory sessions is essential As it is distance-learning programs need their students to visit a designated campus for the laboratory part of the program and most of the time these are for a limited period of time [8] [9]. The experimental setup is connected with an embedded system, which plays the role of the gateway between the experiment and the remote client These facilities utilized embedded processors for facilitating a number of experiments, providing remote client to manipulate experiments, providing needed assessment, and implementing real-time learning management.
