Hey everyone, we've got an official forum now at
http://www.openspectrometer.com/forum/

and we've posted two questions we'd like to hear feedback on.

Thanks!

We've got the CCD working pretty well, now we've got to get the data
pushed out to USB and the SD card!

Here's a demonstration of using 1/8th inch acrylic and double-sided
adhesive sheeting (basically sticky tape without the plastic layer) to
make a microfluidic cuvette:

In the video I say the volume is in the 100s of uL, but on second
thought it might not be so high (I'll try it with a micropipettor
later to get a better feel)
