Project description
> Spectrophotometer Design
UV/visible spectrophotometry is an essential tool in the identification and quantification of a very broad range of chemical and biological substances. It relies on the measurement of radiation intensity absorption at various spectral wavelength. It has proved particularly useful in biochemical analysis, and is of vital importance in the clinical laboratory where various components of blood and/or urine samples, are determined and monitored on a 24h basis.
An essential part of this project is to provide to the Citizen Science community an easy-to-build design of a spectrophotometer. The design will rely heavily on Open Hardware components such as the Arduino microcontroller, as well as on the cheap LED technology. The necessary software will also use Open Source software libraries like Processing in order to control the system and visualise the output signals. The software will be accessible under an Open Source license.
