NEW INITIATIVE · SCHOOL STEM LABORATORY

NPG ResearchLab

Local platform for school measurements and analysis of experimental data.

Educational laboratory illustration with ESP32, Arduino, temperature sensors, humidity, illumination, voltage and current, and graphs of NPG ResearchLab — Conceptual image of the school measuring laboratory. The displayed numbers and graphs are indicative, not real measurements.

ESP32-S3, Arduino, sensor modules and graphics — **Microcontrollers and sensors**Practical data collection at school

Illustration of future study experiment with solar panel, current and voltage sensor and power graphics — **Solar experiment**Planned application in green technologies

The images are designed to represent the concept. The values and graphics in them are illustrative. The real school experiments are documented separately.

We measure with microcontrollers, store the results of the school server and turn them into graphics, comparisons and scientific conclusions. The platform is designed for practical robotics, electronics, automation and green technologies.

For the platform Example interfaces and devices

Important: ResearchLab collects and processes measurements local on school network. This public page is only a presentation of the project; it does not provide access to management or internal database.

PRESENTATION OF THE PATFORM

From measurement to reasoned conclusion

An environment for collecting, storing and analyzing results of study and scientific experiments.

▣

Devices and sessions

Registration of Arduino, ESP32 and other devices; organisation of measurements by individual experiments.

Works in the test version

⌁

Data Receiving

Manual input and automated obtaining measurements through a secure local HTTP interface.

Works in the test version

▥

Graphs and statistics

Visualization of recorded measurements, minimum, maximum and average of selected parameter.

↓

Archive and Export

Separate MariaDB database and CSV export after-treatment in spreadsheets.

Works in the test version

↔

More Interfaces

USB serial interface support, MQTT and periodically automatic recording settings.

Planned Development

⚗

Comparison of experiments

Advanced comparative analysis between sessions and connecting with adaptive textbooks.

Planned Development

Scheme: ESP32 and Arduino accept sensor data, transmit them to the school server and display them as graphics — Illustration scheme: microcontroller → sensors → school server → graphic analysis. Does not represent a picture of the measurement setup.

Measurements and GRAPHS

What Experimental Data Look Like

Track temperature, humidity, illumination, voltage, current and other parameters measured by teaching electronic devices.

Schematic example graph for temperature, illumination and voltage — The lines are illustrative, not a result of measurements made with NPG ResearchLab.

TESTA version · OCTOBER 2026

Our first laboratory measurements

The software is already installed on the school server. Registration of devices and experiments, automatic acceptance of test records, storage in MariaDB, graphics and CSV export are checked.

The checks were carried out with temporary test records that were cleared. There is still no published series of real measurements with a physical sensor in this new system.

After connecting the first ESP32-S3 we will publish here selected actual measurements and graphs with specified date, sensor and conditions of the experiment.

FROM OUR SCHOOL PRACTICE

Real Robotics NPG projects

The following images are from realized school projects. They show the experience gained with electronics, sensors, automation and experimental systems — are not photos from the new platform.

School project ECO-smart house of Robotics NPG — **ECO-smart house**Our school project for automation and environmental management.

School project for smart greenhouses of Robotics NPG — **„Smart Greenhouse“**Example of practical operation with sensors and process management.

The pictures are from the archive of Robotics NPG. The diagram and chart above are visual illustrations. Data from actual future experiments will be presented separately from the sample visualizations.

ANNEX IN THE LEARNING

Study experiments, not cloud service

The system is designed to work with real devices in the school STEM laboratory.

Robotics and microcontrollers

Recording of sensor data, analogue inputs, motors and execution mechanisms.

Electronics and automation

Monitoring of electrical quantities and processes, processing results and comparison of experiments.

Green technologies

Upcoming learning experiences with solar panels: voltage, current, power and orientation influence.

Summer Academy

Practical STEM classes where students conduct experiments, visualize the result and explain it.

Our Purpose

Students to work with true physical quantities and self-collected data, not only with pre-prepared graphics. The storage and main analysis are on the school server. Remote administrative access is separate and protected.
