I read ramen, then read the first comment and thought nothing of it.
Then read you comment and looked closer. I really am a dumb cat.

No but for real, wtf is this thing?

Raman spectroscopy is based on the interaction of light with the chemical bonds of a substance. This yields detailed information about chemical structure, polymorphism, crystallinity and molecular dynamics.

A spectrometer uses light defraction (like a prism does, spreading white ont rainbow) ro determine characteristics of the thing emitting the light. Dark bars in the rainbow produced indicate information about composition.

I was unfamiliar, so I did a cursory bit of research. Sounds very cool! But the tech costs 20 - 100k, so I'm assuming it's very technically difficult to assemble yourself. Good luck

so there a lot of reasons why those can be expensive. higher sensitivity, more frequency range, built in library. there's enough open source hardware to make this 250 dollar item webcam based spectrometer worth it.

Would be interesting to learn about making a machine that can cost a huge amount of money, will you make a video or an article in a blog about it?
I would watch/read hahaha

Yeah I should make a video but I'd end up using a bot to voice it. I do want it as a PDF file and maybe a lemme post. So far the only place I archive it is in a elements server. So I do want be archived somewhere on the fediverse

Post it to Lemmy! I think people will like it.
