The paper deals with the remotely controlled physical experiment which is located at the Department of Experimental Physics at Palacky University in Olomouc. A remote experiment is a real experiment with real laboratory instruments and equipment that can be controlled by a teacher or a student or any user from their computer through the Internet. The article presents our first remote experiment (comparison of volt-ampere characteristics between incandescent light bulb and energy saving light bulb with using AC) which is available free on-line on the website http://www.ictphysics.upol.cz/remotelab/. This paper outlines our current research and reflection of remotely controlled experiments and it describes the educational point of view of the remotely controlled system.
