Dear BlackBox Users:
I posted two example screenshots showing experiental data recorded and
managed using my brand new POM Data Logger. The particular data shown in
these plots come from a device known as a Displacement Measuring
Interferometer (DMI) which is a combined electronic and optical system
costing way in excess of $100k. We will use this SW and HW in a project
named TGATS (Tiled Diffraction Gratings Test System) to record and manage
histories of DMI data versus temperature, environmental pressure, and
several other environmental factors. It is an important and
mission-critical project.
The screen shots are linked in the last paragraph of my downloads section
http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~skulski/Downloads.html
There is naturally more to this project than just POM. There is optics,
electronics, and mechanics, that are all outside the scope of this
mailing list. A message that is important to BlackBox community:
here we are using BlackBox for a really demanding and critical task.
I expect my BlackBox software to be one of the most stable and
maintainable parts of this large project. The BlackBox part is truly
in the spirit of "Scientific Programming Without a Sting", as explained
on my home page
http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~skulski
In order to acquire the presented data from the hardware I had to dive
into the "DLL hell" written in C, and it has been hellish. Comparatively
speaking, the BlackBox part of this project was heaven, as we all know
in this community.
Happy programming everybody!
W.
