Abstract

A system and method are disclosed for remote testing of items where the tests are performed at a first site and monitored and controlled at a second site. A first remote test control station at the first site includes a test bench device for testing the items, and a video meeting station for viewing and controlling the test bench device. The second site includes a remote test control station, where the second remote test control station can control the testing parameters of the test equipment used by the test bench device, in near real time. The second remote test control station at the second site and the video meeting station at the first site are connected via both voice/audio links and visual links.
