virtual lab
Online experiment space
A virtual lab is a computer-based simulation that replicates laboratory equipment and experiments, allowing students or researchers to conduct procedures without physical materials.
Common in science education, virtual labs let users mix chemicals, dissect specimens, or run physics experiments on screen: The biology course used a virtual lab for the frog dissection.
They're cheaper and safer than traditional labs, though they sacrifice hands-on experience.
