For the formation of a professional in engineering, it is necessary that the knowledge gained in the classroom can be applied in practice. Based on this issue, this paper reports the study and development of a prototype that uses prototyping tools and creating an Android application capable of performing reading analog variables and hardware control via Bluetooth communication to be used in laboratory teaching . The study on the theoretical foundation involves the review of concepts from the application of practical teaching labs to the technology areas related to the project, such as Arduino and Android platforms. The work continues with the prototype development methodology, which are detailed all stages of development of the proposed system, the components that constitute the programming tools used and the final results of the prototype already in operation. Throughout the article, we report the tests to validate the prototype and the results obtained. Finally, we observe them design features and the feasibility of its application in academia.
