Online electric circuits simualtor

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around a new online project for simulating electric circuits, known as DC/AC Lab. Participants explore its features, potential expansions, and seek feedback on the tool's utility for students and instructors in the context of electric circuits.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant introduces the DC/AC Lab, highlighting its capability to build DC circuits and compute electrical parameters like voltage, current, and resistance.
  • Another participant expresses interest in the tool and inquires about plans for adding more components to the simulator.
  • The original poster mentions intentions to expand the tool to include LED and AC simulations, emphasizing its online functionality and realistic light bulb simulation.
  • There is a suggestion to add a forum to the website for user interaction and lesson sharing.
  • One participant expresses enthusiasm for the tool, reiterating the need for more components.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the tool's usefulness and express a desire for additional features, but specific plans for expansion and publicity remain open to discussion.

Contextual Notes

There are mentions of technical requirements (Flash 10) and user functionalities (creating accounts, saving circuits) that may affect user experience and accessibility.

Who May Find This Useful

Students and instructors interested in electric circuits, as well as developers or educators looking for online simulation tools for teaching or testing purposes.

Hello,

If you are a student and interested in electric circuits or an instructor who is wishing to test certain electric circuits to prepare lessons, I would like to show you a new web project for online circuits simulation, its DC/AC Lab, its a flex based project that is capable of building DC circuits, you can build circuits with batteries, resistors, wires and other components, then the simulator will compute Volt, Amper, Ohm between at any component or connections nodes at board.

Please check it here: ( flash 10 required, less than 2 minutes to load the lab )

I will be glad to hear your opinions and ideas as well.

Kind Regards,
hopewise

Very cool! Do you have plans for adding more components?
 
thanks,

well, i am thinking to expand the tool, to simulate LED, and AC as well,
the main advantage is that it works online, i tried to make the light bulb realistic too :-)

do you know a good way to publicize the tool over the web ? i will try to add a forum to the website too.

p.s: users can enter new lessons and save their circuits, did you try to create an account ?

regards,
hopewise

This is very AWESOME !
I love this tool

You must add more components
