Shared instrumentation, simulation and notebooks

Why it exists

Every branch needs the same loop. Building it once separates research that accumulates from research that restarts.

What it is meant to be

• One toolchain across every branch
• Results and instrument data carry provenance
• Agent access through the same interface boundary products use
• A closed loop from question back to next experiment

Current milestone

Define the shared simulation and measurement layer. Kept shallow until a branch is blocked.

• PLANNEDPlatform design

Long term direction

A platform where a question, its data, analysis and conclusion stay attached.

The tool family

Concept stage. None of these exist.

• ME Lab Bench

  Hardware conceptPower, sensing and capture built into the bench

• Scientific Notebook

  SoftwareResults with provenance. Negative results are first class

• Autonomous Microscope

  Hardware conceptUnattended scans, returned with their conditions

• Simulation Environment

  SoftwareThe cheap version, before materials or machine time

• Sensor Tiles

  Hardware conceptMeasurement placed anywhere, no new data path
