Education
Every student. Real instruments. No new benches.
LABIIUM turns your existing test and measurement equipment into a shared, automated platform. Students run real experiments on real instruments—from the lab, campus, or remotely.
Deployed at
The University of Edinburgh
Modes
In-person, hybrid, remote
Control
Teacher-set guardrails
Interaction
AI prompts or Python
Evidence
Replayable, signed runs
You stay in charge of pedagogy, assessment, and safety. We handle the plumbing.
Scale
More students, same benches. Pool equipment across cohorts and time zones.
Control
Teacher-governed AI with hint budgets, safety limits, and full audit trails.
Evidence
Signed, replayable experiments for grading, moderation, and accreditation.
What LABIIUM does for education
Build real-instrument labs that are consistent, shareable, and auditable.
Standardise and automate your labs
- LAMB bridges connect instruments (USB, LAN, GPIB, serial), lab PCs, and cameras to your network.
- PyTestLab automation with safety limits, structured logs, and record-and-replay.
- Central scheduling to allocate benches and push experiments to courses.
Version-controlled, reproducible labs that survive staff changes and curriculum updates.
Expand access beyond the lab room
- Remote access to real benches via browser with live instrument control and video.
- Overflow capacity from a shared pool when the room is full.
- Asynchronous sessions for students who miss scheduled lab time.
More contact with real hardware without building new labs or doubling technician hours.
Add AI assistance with guardrails
- Teacher-set hint budgets: conceptual only, N hints per lab, or different policies for formative vs summative.
- Cost-aware, multi-model routing with full audit trails.
- Whitelisted tools, safety limits, and logs by student, lab, and bench.
AI-assisted learning without losing control of pedagogy, safety, or assessment integrity.
Make assessment transparent and reproducible
- Structured database for raw signals, instrument settings, student code, and logs.
- Replayable experiments to recreate state and compare against reference runs.
- Signatures showing what came from the bench, what was AI-assisted, and what was edited.
Clearer grading, easier moderation, and strong evidence for accreditation.
Benefits for everyone involved
One platform serving leaders, instructors, students, and IT.
Course leaders
- -Scale labs without new rooms by pooling benches across cohorts and time zones.
- -Modernise curriculum with measurement automation, Python, and AI workflows.
- -Documented experiments and analytics for accreditation reviews.
Lab instructors
- -Reusable templates across cohorts, years, and campuses.
- -Auto-check bench health, auto-reset instruments, pre-populate notebooks.
- -See steps completed, hints requested, and where students struggle.
Students
- -Real instruments with guardrails—see noise and non-idealities safely.
- -Immediate feedback with inline checks and AI hints on measurements.
- -Portable skills: Python automation, structured logging, reproducibility.
IT and lab managers
- -Zero-config LAMB appliances over secure overlay, minimal OS footprint.
- -Instrument networks isolated from campus with role-based access.
- -Telemetry for bench uptime, connectivity, and firmware versions.
From first-year labs to capstones
Students get authentic measurement experience with replayable evidence for grading and moderation.
Introductory electronics
IV curves, Bode plots, RC responses with structured notebooks and AI-guided interpretation.
Instrumentation courses
Students write Python measurement scripts and run them on shared benches with full logging.
Capstone projects
Teams schedule exclusive bench access and share reproducible pipelines with supervisors.
Remote programmes
Partner sites or distance learners use a central pool of benches with local teaching control.
Deploy where you need
- -On-premise in your data centre
- -In your university cloud account
- -Hybrid: cloud orchestration with LAMB devices on-site
Integrate with existing systems
- -LMS integration for sessions, results, notebooks
- -Git repos for lab scripts and versioning
- -SSO and role-based access via your IdP
Start small and scale
Clear stages so you can pilot with confidence.
1
Pilot
2-4 benches, a few courses, clear target like scaling first-year labs or enabling remote make-up sessions.
2
Integrate
Co-design lab exercises, assessment flows, and AI policies with your teaching team.
3
Scale
Roll out to more benches, courses, and sites with training for staff and TAs.
