Abstract

Our Smart Bio-Laboratory project seeks to deploy smart technologies pervasively within the wet laboratory to facilitate bio- scientists in their daily experimental activities. In this work, we develop a “Virtual Lab Dashboard” (VLD) platform for ubiquitous local and remote monitoring and control in a smart bio-laboratory. We have implemented a prototype VLD system that employs wireless mobile computing, Java, and LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Perl/Python) technologies to enable lab users to access different bio-equipments at different locations in different modes, showing that current wireless and embedded technologies can be effectively utilized to create a unique smart work space for scientific experimentation and research in the wet laboratories.
