Abstract	Technical education is, by definition, a field that requires hands-on practice and experience by the student. When it comes to distant learning, technical education suffers from lack of such practical study, given the fact that e-learning is based on theoretical material being provided remotely to the student. This article presents the idea of assisting technical education that is provided remotely, by introducing a remotely controlled laboratory--a key feature in technical education fields such as electrical engineering. Furthermore, the paper discusses functionality and practical application of such an idea, using an implemented example of a remotely controlled robotic arm and an online education platform while the observed results are evaluated, accompanied by the conclusions that the scientific team reached. (Contains 5 figures.) (Author).
