2018 All-Scientists’ Meeting Sessions and times are now confirmed. Locations may change, but will be updated on Sched.
**Please Note: If you sync you calendar, sessions will appear in your local time zone. This can be confusing until you arrive on site (when your local time zone will be the correct one).**
In order to move science forward, researchers ask questions and attempt to measure things for which there are little-to-no off-the-shelf solutions. Our community is either forced to purchase expensive niche instrumentation, or procure devices and modify them to approximate what was originally intended. Electronics continue to decrease in cost and size, and increase in capability and internet connectivity. But to make your own instruments requires a steep learning curve in programming, engineering, and fabrication. You will be using prototypes of an opensource, plug-and-play wireless sensor-actuator control system for building your very own internet-enabled sensor logging and control systems and providing valuable feedback.
