Project Description
I constructed a simple refractive index detector, an instrument that identifies pure samples based on their optical properties. The construction was done using inexpensive materials in order to test the limits of RID at its most fundamental. This also involved coding a program that analyzes the samples and setting up a microcontroller for the electronics.
