Abstract
University control engineering coursesusually focus on Proportional Integral Derivative (PID)controllers. Moreover PID controllers are used in morethan 90% of the industrial control applications, becausethey are relatively cheap, easy to use, and robust enoughfor most industrial applications. However, universityteaching attaches most importance to the theoreticalknowledge of PID controllers, rather than the practicalskills required to support the use of these controllers inindustry. In addition, the cost and space challengesassociated with hands on laboratories make simulationbased laboratories a more attractive option for teachingPID controllers. Unfortunately, simulations do notcapture the complexity of control systems that areimportant to develop the practical skills of students. Inthis paper, we present a laboratory setup that is used toteach practical skills in PID tuning. The system controlsthe temperature of a small fictitious house whosetemperature is affected by an uncontrolled heating sourceand blow fan. The PID data is accessible to the systemuser through OLE( Object Linking & Embedding) forProcess Control, also referred as Open ProcessControl(OPC) technology. This technology allows thesystem to be used as a hands-on or remote laboratory,which allows students to learn the complexity of PIDcontrollers, while removing the time and spaceconstraints imposed by purely hands on laboratories.Being accessible remotely, the setup enables andencourages instructors to include demonstrations of PIDtuning into their lectures

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
