The Urinoscope will be designed as an Open Source Hardware project. The Urinoscope is a generic spectrophotometer used to screen urine samples. It will be built from existing projects such as the Arduino microcontroller, and it will be using LED technologies.
Three different designs, based on three different sensors, will be explored for the 'Urinoscope':
- Photodiode-based design:
- Make: Liquid ID Spectrometer, by Eric Rosenthal.
- TSL230-based design:
- Linear CCD-based:
- Component: Toshiba TCD1304 CCD
- Commercial product: Ocean Optics USB2000
The scientific community has produced several standards to represent spectroscopic data. The project will evaluate them in order to produce a Urinoscope design compatible with state-of-the-art spectroscopic data handling.
The Urinomics project will develop a central Open Dataset to store and share the data produce by the Urinoscope. It will be implemented as an Open Source Software project, and it will use existing available Open Source resources to implement a database and an open API to store and query the repository.
