Virtual European Laser Institute connects 15 of the leading laser institutes from Finland to Portugal to a unique European network, bringing together the competence and knowledge on laser technology across Europe
VIRTUELA
The Virtual Euro Laser Laboratory project, part of the Leonardo da Vinci programmme, replaces traditional laboratory experiments with virtual interactive computer simulations. This enables distance laboratory training without access to expensive laser laboratory equipment and enters new pedagogical methods of multimedia-based interactive teaching.
Each of the sessions has been developed by a laboratory and the researchers specialised in the respective field from European laser laboratories including Laser Group at the University of Liverpool.
