Enhancing Applied Learning on PLC Programming Through Virtual Testing in Cyber-Physical Systems

Content Unit 1

Published on 3 December 2024

PLC programming is vital for mastering process automation in engineering programs, but hands-on learning is limited by equipment costs, safety concerns, and accessibility. This project introduces a cyber-physical production system, enabling unlimited, supervised-free testing, with accurate feedback, and evaluates its effectiveness compared to traditional physical systems through control groups in the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT).
