 ====== VREL Next Gen Remote Labs ======
-The VREL NextGen distant laboratory with remote access allows one to work with real hardware (not a simulator) and experience real engineering problems. The web browser is all that is needed to interface the lab. Programming of the IoT devices is done in the browser, as well as handling firmware uploads, restarts etc. The device's state can be observed directly via video streaming, almost in real-time, and indirectly via the network. One or more devices can be booked exclusively for a user. While booked, it is unavailable for other users, but several devices exist. Booking time is limited.

 Users can choose which laboratory and device to access, then book and use it. Technical documentation and hands-on laboratory scenarios are integrated with the user interface.

 The VREL NextGen solution comprises one or more hosting servers that provide a user interface via www and several laboratories with hardware located across Europe, currently in Poland, Estonia and Latvia. Public instances are announced via the [[https://iot-open.eu]] website. Besides public instances, there are private ones for consortium HE partner's students only. Those servers and related hardware (lab nodes) are not publicly accessible. Public instances sometimes also share resources with consortium HE partner's activities.

 <note important>Note, even remotely, you're facing real, physical devices with actuators; thus, you always must consider in your experiments physical phenomena like time, friction, pendulum, and so on.</note>

+The following chapters provide a manual for software and hardware. Laboratory scenarios are provided as per laboratory. Integration and local services such as access points, gateways and related technical information (network configuration, credentials, etc) are described per laboratory in the hardware section.
