MeasureNet's New Features - Part 5 - Real-Time Data to the Cloud & Remote Monitor Experiments

  
  
  

MeasureNet has added some new features to our LabKonnect™ data storage site and PC software that provide you and your students with even greater flexibility than before.

  • Automatic Data Files Graphing
  • Online Lab Report Storage/Submission
  • Extended Experiments with Remote Monitoring

Automatic Data Files Graphing

With the rollout of the new LabKonnect features, we decided to make it easier to get a quick idea of your data sets.  Users can graph any data set uploaded through the MeasureNet Lab PC software right on the LabKonnect site.

Online Lab Report Storage/Submission

MeasureNet LabKonnect now allows students to upload their lab reports and store them on the cloud.  Instructors can download the lab reports, grade them, and then upload the graded lab report to the student's account for instant feedback with no wasted paper.

Extended Experiments with Remote Monitoring

One of MeasureNet's most exciting new features is the ability to conduct extended length experiments and remotely monitor them from the web.  If you have an experiment with a slow reaction that needs to be monitored over several days, you can go home and have fun while still collecting your data.  MeasureNet will even send you a text message if your experiment goes out of bounds.  That way you can come in and fix your setup without losing days worth of valuable data. 

You can set up your alert conditions online, and then start the extended experiment with the Lab PC Software.  After that, you just let your experiment run until you choose to stop it.

This capability is ideal for research projects that require the monitoring of experiments that run for days or weeks. The William Heineman research group at the University of Cincinnati has been using this feature for a number of their research projects.

If you want to check up on your data and see how it's trending, you can log in and graph or download the data that has been collected so far. You can also leave comments on each of the extended experiment files in case you want to do multiple runs.
