EYES17-DOC(1)

📦 version 4.8.8, in ubuntu jammy

💖 EYES17-DOC 💖

okay bestie, welcome to eyes17-doc — section 1 of the manual, the little launcher that opens up the User Manual for the expeyes-17 box. she's simple, she's cute, she's here to read to you. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

eyes17-doc — the documentation about the expeyes-17 box. literally just that. the lore, delivered. 📖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

eyes17-doc

that's it. no flags, no args, no drama. queen behavior honestly. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

eyes17-doc launches a reader for the User Manual describing the features of the expeyes-17 box. so you run it, and it hands you the manual. no cap.

🧚 what even is Eyes17 tho

Eyes17 is from the PHOENIX project of the Inter-University Accelerator Centre, New Delhi. she's a hardware & software framework for developing science experiments, demonstrations and projects — and for learning science and engineering by exploration. like, learning by doing, the way it's supposed to be. 🔥

she's capable of doing real time measurements and analysing the data in different ways. and when I say measurements I mean:

  • analog voltages get measured with 0.025% resolution ✨
  • time intervals get measured with one microsecond precision ⏱️

the whole project is based on Free and Open Source software, mostly written in the Python programming language. and the hardware design is open too. the way that everything is open, from the code to the board?? it's giving transparency, it's giving community, it's giving you-can-actually-look-inside. 💅

🌈 vs. the older boxes

when compared with the previous ExpEYES boxes — that's Expeyes and Expeyes-Junior — ExpEYES-17 is richer in various features:

  • multiple soft input ranges
  • a more flexible wave generator
  • better time resolution
  • better voltage resolution
  • supports seamlessly cheap I2C sensors

she really said glow-up. ⭐ not me being obsessed with a hardware revision but here we are.
