Learn how enterprises can train their technical specialists to work with measurement instruments, enhancing their skills from basic to advanced, using the virual reality (remote control of the real equipment via Internet and virtual simulators).
2. Technical universities
problems
Engineering - among top 10
of the most demanded
professions in the world.
But graduating engineers lack
hard skills.
It negatively impacts the
industry market.
Financials
Excessively high price of lab
equipment and maintenance (several
million dollars). Example of the Texas
Tech University: renovation of just the
Telecommunications and RF laboratory
amounts >$250k (all labs $6,5M)
Restriction access to labs
Equipment capacity,
dangerous equipment
Gap between university and industry
Irrelevant students’ KPIs,
“old-fashioned” instruments
$$$
3. Industry problems
40% of graduates need retraining,
when hired
Certificates doe not confirm experts
real skills
Gap between industry and education
* Sources: Washington Monthly, May 2014;
2014 Training Industry Report, Training magazine;
- 30% of overall equipment failure by
entrants
- High costs of staff training (venue, time,
travel costs)
• Average bill for a top company on training is
$17,4M (no specific figure for tech courses)
leads to
USA 1,8M
8,6%
unemployment
rate
Acute shortage of advanced skilled
engineers *
Russia 2M
Africa
2,5M
India
only 5%
of 1,5M
fit jobs
4. Effective solution
Practice, close to real. User controls the
instruments remotely via internet in real-time (knobs
and touchscreen display of instruments)
Complete virtual copy of real equipment on a user’s
laptop (not connected to real instruments):
- real results of working with instruments
- available to thousands of users simultaneously
Virtual instruments/ simulators
for hands-on practice of
technical specialist
Remote control of real
equipment via the Internet
+
Highly qualified hard-skilled specialists
Step-by-Step-Learning tool
+
Embedded module, which automatically guides a
trainee through the experiment as to the script. Step-
by-step training on functionality of instruments.
Possibility to test hard skills.
5. • No plugins to be installed, no
ports opened. Only Internet/ local
network needed
• Secure modes and parameter
parts of experiments (system
constraints) – equipment care
• Available from a browser, any
computer, anywhere in the world
• Cross-platform
• Secure access to dangerous
equipment
advantages
• Proof check of candidates’ real
hard skills
Own R&D and Know-How in the field of data
formation and transmission
• Training and practice 24/7
• Upgrading shards skills from
basic to advanced
6. Demo of Labicom solution

2. Remote and virtual laboratories of the solid-state laser setup
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfXnHCq9uaw
• Remote control of the real equipment via internet and virtual simulators
from the browser. User preforms actions as if with real equipment,
controlling the instruments by a mouse (computer control) or by fingers
(tablet).
7. Development and
installment of
customized online
simulators for hands-on
training of technical
specialists
Focus – measurement instruments:
Potential opportunity – core equipment
of an enterprise
We offer enterprises
8. Industry goal – process
optimization:
Human resource
development and productive
efficiency
Need – train how to work with
new instruments
Change of journeymen’s mind
Virtualization, Smart Factory,
Internet of Thing
• Effective scalable cutting-edge
solution for staff training - unlimited
time of training, deep involvement,
possibility of improvement
• Specialists with proven hard skills -
based on enterprise requirements,
with instruments necessary to an
enterprise
• Saving on training expenditures, loss
prevention (equipment failure, day
releases), possibilities of additional
income (development of corporate
universities of OEM (Original
Equipment Manufacturers))
What enterprises get with
Labicom
Cost optimization
9. 1. Training of newcomers, retraining in case of installment of new equipment:
training on how to work with equipment via Labicom: skills testing, practice
using virtual simulators, then proof test via remote control of equipment
2. Skills improvements and certification:
Possibility to develop a customized simulator as to eligibility criteria of an
enterprise
Testing via Labicom as a part of the certification program of an enterprise or
OEM
Educational opportunities
10. 3. Training program for affiliated universities:
Graduates master equipment of the enterprise already in the
university, even if it the university is not equipped with these
instruments:
1) Step-by-Step Learning (SBSL) – getting to know the
instruments,
2) virtual simulators – virtual experiments (as if in a real
laboratory),
3) access to control of the real demo setup
Students do internship at an enterprise, working with the mastered
equipment
Educational opportunities
11. Labicom recognition
Labicom is one of the major players and key
vendors in the market of remote and virtual
laboratories in the US 2016-2020
Best remote and virtual laboratories, IEEE
exp.at'15 (June 2015, Portugal)
Best remote and virtual laboratories, IEEE REV
2016 (February 2016, Spain)
Bauman Moscow State Technical University
(Russia) uses Labicom as the main hands-on
training tool for the course “Quantum Electronics”
