Abstract
In the actual context of the world economic and financial crisis, any source that causes economy is welcomed. In the technical educational system such a source is represented by the implementation of remote labs. These allow, among other things, the sharing of modern technology between several centers and also the saving of power by using an adequate energetic management. This paper presents a solution for implementing remote labs by using web technologies that are platform independent from the client point of view. Such a lab implementation exemplification is materialized by remote controlling the NI-ELVIS platform.
Highlights
The rapid growth of the Internet and its subsequent user base have made it a powerful tool for obtaining or sharing knowledge at a much more rapid pace than ever before. These aspects allowed the appearance of many online remote labs or e-learning platforms set up by different universities or associations from all over the world
What about the industry point of view?. Such a control and visualization system might come in handy in an industrial environment where there might be a need to monitor the state of the machines working on the factory floor

Summary
The rapid growth of the Internet and its subsequent user base have made it a powerful tool for obtaining or sharing knowledge at a much more rapid pace than ever before These aspects allowed the appearance of many online remote labs or e-learning platforms set up by different universities or associations from all over the world. Such a control and visualization system might come in handy in an industrial environment where there might be a need to monitor the state of the machines working on the factory floor. A number of different remote control interfaces have been developed on platforms such as Java, Flash or some other virtual machines, many of which may be proprietary and thusly affect the cost of implementing a remote engineering system. Java and Flash tend to take a long time to load, and installation might be complicated on some machines, this goes especially when working on alternative platforms or operating systems
