Projects

measure is a software suite for conducting science experiments in STEM classes at the highschool and university level. It was developed on behalf of PHYWE Systeme GmbH, Göttingen. measure comprises a user-friendly Windows software for visualizing and analyzing acquired data, as well as numerous plugins for different PHYWE instruments and experimental setups. The base software can be used free-of-charge, while the device plugins require a paid license. The supported devices range from generic handheld instruments for measuring various physical units, over the modular Cobra3 system for computer-assisted experiments, to highly specialized instruments such as the PHYWE X-Ray Unit and a device for the Frank-Hertz-Experiment.

measure provides a library of tools for processing and analyzing data, including peak and curve analysis, function fitting, channel modifications, Fourier transformations, linear regression, as well as many experiment-specific functions. Various options are available for configuring the data plots, and for importing, exporting, or printing the data.

After sunsetting the project in 2009, PHYWE continued the development of measure in-house. The software is still available today and used by many universities worldwide for laboratory courses.
