πŸ’– EXPEYES-JUNIOR πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the expeyes-junior manual page (that's the EXPEYES-JUNIOR(1) one, from the expeyes-junior User Manual) β€” sit down, grab a snack, we're doing science πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

expeyes-junior β€” an interactive board to control the expeyes-junior box πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

expeyes-junior

no flags, no args, no drama. just the program. she's low maintenance like that ✨


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

expeyes-junior is a program that lets you control most features of the expeyes-junior box β€” interactively, like you're actually there pressing buttons, because you kind of are 🫢

So what is the expeyes-junior box, you ask? Not me about to info-dump on you: it comes from the PHOENIX project of the Inter-University Accelerator Centre, New Delhi. It's a hardware and software framework for building science experiments, demos and projects β€” the whole point is learning science and engineering by exploring, which is honestly the most main character way to learn πŸ”₯

It can do real-time measurements and then analyse that data in all sorts of different ways. And the numbers? Analog voltages are measured with 0.025% resolution, and time intervals with one microsecond. one. microsecond. bestie. πŸ’€

Oh and the whole thing is built on Free and Open Source software, mostly written in the Python programming language β€” and the hardware design is open too. iconic behaviour, no notes πŸ‘‘


πŸ‘€ SEE ALSO πŸ‘€

You can find a user manual in the directory /usr/share/expeyes/doc/ as a PDF file called xx-eyesj.pdf, where xx refers to a language (for example, xx=en). so if you want it in English, that's en-eyesj.pdf, iykyk πŸ“„πŸ’–
