Science Remote Laboratory
Harare, Zimbabwe
What it is
Science Remote Laboratory is a free web platform offering virtual science experiments for university education. Its live library lists 34 experiments across physics, chemistry, biology, IoT, and robotics. Physics activities include an MNA circuit solver and an RK4 engine for mechanics simulations. IoT activities use a pseudocode interpreter for sensor simulations involving MQTT, simulated input and output, PID loops, and safety limits. The platform also describes browser-based 3D virtual labs built with BabylonJS and Havok physics. Sessions persist, progress saves, and multiple students can work in the same lab at the same time. Labs run in a browser with no installation required. The platform is presented for universities, public health organizations, and research institutions. Phase 01 is live, scientific visualization is in development, and later phases are upcoming. The listed plan is Free to explore at no cost. The site invites research partnership inquiries by email and lists headquarters in Harare, Zimbabwe.
