Prolinx Octave
Worked with the client and Stratos engineers to establish functional specifications for the product and define the system architecture, balancing performance requirements, mechanical constraints, and software needs during development of the production system.
The foundation of the resulting system was a powerful DSP-based controller for processing voluminous data flowing from the sensors. Feeding the data was a fast and quiet data acquisition subsystem. Very precise temperature control was used to minimize sensor drift, and a brushless DC motor was used for sample agitation. A USB interface was implemented for downloading control and uploading processed data to the host PC.
