Abstract

Unlike current systems that are monolithic, we present a modular, IP-based architecture for control of remote scientific instruments. The modules can be disparately deployed while communication between each is through TCP. Its feasibility was demonstrated by controlling an Olympus BX-61 motorized microscope through a web interface, SMS, and web over GPRS. Captured images can be viewed via the web interface or sent through MMS. Video streaming through the web interface was also implemented.
