Several safety devices have filled in the vacuous spaces in commercial airplanes which once did not possess such sophisticated mechanisms. Commercial airplanes have copious amount of instruments and electrical circuits to provide a proper control system inside the plane. A noteworthy invention in the early 80â??s is the oxygen masks provided for every passenger during a plane crash or if the airplane is subjected to climatic disturbances while travelling a passenger manually uses the oxygen masks. The oxygen control system in the airplanes has proved very effective in providing an overall safety to the passengers. But the technique given below is far more advanced than the present scenario. A person suffering from a breathing ailment is succumbed to variations in the carbon dioxide levels. Thereby this CO2 is measured and using a feedback control loop, quick actions can be taken in order to provide quick aid to the ailing patient. These are completely automatic and hence it is advanced than the manual oxygen control system presently used in all commercial aircrafts. At the end of the day saving a life is what a humanistic approach is all about.

Internet has revolutionized the way in which the information is delivered. Laboratory based courses play an important role in technical education. Automation is changing the nature of these laboratories and the system designerâ??s focus on Internet accessed experiments owing to the availability of several tools to integrate electronic and mechanical hardware with the World Wide Web. Stand-alone approaches in remote learning have grown tremendously in the recent years. One of the important components in remote experimentation is the integration of Virtual Instruments to perform real hardware tasks in near real-time. The paper describes a web interface to the electrical hardware and integration of LabVIEW Virtual Instruments to the remote access and control of DC Drives. Customized electrical hardware serves as the web interface, supporting various features to remotely control and measure the parameters of the electrical machine. Novel techniques have been used to interface a low power data acquisition system with the DC machine driven by the AC power supply. The system uses the client-server architecture to access the web page of the Virtual Instruments through web browser. The developed system imitates the real control of experiment hardware, but being operated remotely through Internet.
