Raspberry Pi based Digital Measurement

System in Physics

 We would like to encourage teachers and students from other schools to implement our digital measuring system based on Raspberry Pi and open-source PhyPiDAQ-Software with a wide range of sensors in different teacher-led and student-centred physical laboratories experiments.

They can share their experience by sending their results to us via the following email address: Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt! Zur Anzeige muss JavaScript eingeschaltet sein.

We shall then post their results on this collaboration page so that all other participants can benefit and learn from each other in an environment aiming to develop the conceptual understanding of physics content, as well as of basics of electronics, and of mathematical approaches for processing a large amount of data.

Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany

The opensource software package PhyPiDAQ developed by the Prof. Quast at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany, contains a range of classes programmed in Python for easy access and control of the pins of the Raspberry Pi and includes a collection of specific libraries designed for communication with sensors. It manages the acquisition, display, and storage of data obtained from physical sensors through one Graphical Interface, and it can be further developed to encompass programmed classes for new sensors.

Information about the program’s architecture, installation, classes, configurations, applications, etc. one can find on the developer's website:

Measurement case with Raspberry Pi, circuit board and built-in display; 

The measurement case can be used for data acquisition and contains various components for the measurement of voltages and currents as well as an electrometer amplifier circuit for high-resistance measurements of electric charges or smallest currents, as well as an instrumentation amplifier for recording of voltages in the µV range. The documentation to build and use the case for various measurement one can find on the website
