N2 - In this paper, consideration is given to accessibility aspects for students with disabilities in electrical and information engineering laboratories who have limited mobility and who would need to access physical electronic and computer engineering laboratories. Specific consideration is given to the use of remote laboratories which are real experiments that are accessed remotely by a user via an Internet connection. In this arrangement, a traditional laboratory experiment is made accessible via a Web server and using a software application, the experiment can be controlled remotely via the computer interface. As such is complements the traditional 'at-presence' laboratories and virtual laboratories (simulated laboratories).
