Automation of Experiments
The research projects developed in the
field of experiments automation at the lab are described below:
- Atomic force lab automation(project
Laboratório Virtual): This project aims to set up the infraestructure needed to
conect the Nanoscopy lab
from CBPF and the Protective coatings laboratory from PUC-Rio. The
goal is to create a virtual environment that allows both labs a permanent exchange of
information and knowledge. In this environment many technologies are unified in a single
and simple user interface like the internet browsers. The technologies used on this
project are: "Instrumental control", "Videoconference", "Remote control of experiments", "Online
and Offline data analysis", etc. The developed technology will be fully integrated to the experimental
facilities already existent at the labs. It is also purpose of the project to allow the online access to
the lab facilities by the the local and national comunity.
