<![CDATA[The computer laboratory is an essential facility in higher education that requires efficient management of usage and environmental conditions to support the teaching and learning process. However, laboratory management at the Kalimantan Business and Technology Institute is still carried out manually, including scheduling, room condition monitoring, and report creation, which is prone to errors and time-consuming. This study aims to develop an Internet of Things (IoT)-based laboratory monitoring system prototype to improve the effectiveness of computer laboratory management. The approach used is Research and Development (R&D) with a prototype development model, allowing for design adjustments based on user feedback iteratively. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and document studies related to laboratory conditions and analyzed to determine the main system features, such as temperature and humidity monitoring, scheduling, and report generation. The results of the study show that the developed prototype can structure the laboratory workflow, provide real-time monitoring, facilitate schedule management, and simplify report preparation. This prototype is expected to serve as a foundation for developing a more comprehensive application, improving data accuracy, time efficiency, and the quality of laboratory management.]]>
