Motivations
Over the last decade a complete plethora of free-open hardware and software resources have been developed for use in engineering and other fields [4], more recently significant advances have been achieved in the field of microcontrollers [5] and data acquisition and analysis [6]

Motivations
Virtual laboratories have become an extended tool used for teachers and students around the world in all stages of education, ranging from elementary school to higher education[1]. The virtualization of laboratory practicals has shown to be an effective mean to extend learning scenarios beyond the classroom or laboratory at campus site.

Project's Goal
The main goal is to design and implement a set of practicals belonging to the Electronic Instrumentation course for the Electronic Engineering undergraduate program.
Laboratory practicals on temperature sensing, error estimation, data acquisition, remote monitoring and sound analysis have been designed to be integrated to course virtual activities

Conclusions
Current free-open tools exhibits acceptable performance and offer to users and administrators enough options to design and put into operation, implementations covering the essential needs for virtual practicals.

Conclusions
Virtual laboratories and similar e-learning tools improve and complement traditional “at-classroom” education instead of abolishing it.

Conclusions
The solution based in open-free resources has flexible features that enhance time sustainability. The less dependent design on hardware-software elements, allows a wider spectrum of operating variants, including the adoption of teaching approaches or models dynamically, as time passes according to academic results.
