Description: itom is an open source software suite for operating measurement systems, laboratory automation and data evaluation.
One main application of itom is the development and operation of sensor and measurement system for instance in a laboratory environment. Therefore the software is able to communicate with a wide range of different hardware systems, such as cameras or actuators. Additionally it provides a diversified set of evaluation and data processing methods.
All this is implemented by an extensible plugin system that is based on Qt 4 or 5. Hardware instances run in their own threads such that they can be simultaneously and robustly controlled and operated.
The software comes with Python 3 as fully embedded scripting language, which allows the rapid prototyping of any setups or measurement systems. The internal matrix structure of itom is based on OpenCV matrices and is fully compatible to Numpy arrays of Python. The scripting environment provides useful features like a Python debugger, syntax highlighting, auto completion, syntax checks...
Using the QtDesigner, user defined graphical user interfaces can be layouted and finally programmed with Python. These user interfaces can not only be equiped with default Qt widgets but itom comes with a set of further designer plugins, such as hardware control elements for the hardware plugins, plot widgets or live images for connected cameras.
There are setups available for Windows 32bit and 64bit. itom also runs under linux (needs to be build from source) and is mainly tested with Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu (12.04, 14.04 and 16.10) and Debian KDE.
