(u)Computer-Assisted Scientific Experiments

About

The development of new, sophisticated experimental setups requires the integration of many independent components into one, complex device. This task could be easily done with the use of so called virtual instruments, that control all hardware devices from one software platform. Virtual instruments could be additionally assisted with electronic appliances, composed of components that nowadays are often available in a form of evaluation boards and modules. Unlike commercial laboratory equipment, custom-built
devices provide unique features, that allow for exploration of unknown areas of natural sciences. We focus on the practical application, demonstrating building blocks that could be easily implemented in laboratory practice. The course will be divided into three parts: lectures, hands-on laboratories, and group projects.
