CEOS Panta Rhei – Data Acquisition and Analysis Software

CEOS Panta Rhei – Data Acquisition and Analysis Software

Introduction

CEOS Panta Rhei – Camera Dialog

Originally developed to operate the CEFID Imaging Energy Filter our software framework CEOS Panta Rhei in the mean time became useful to drive data acquisition with a great variety of different detectors and scan generators. Integration for six detector manufacturers and four scan generators already exists.

The open architecture allows to interface with other devices, data acquisition workflows, and analysis methods rather easily.

CEOS Panta Rhei will be available as open-source software (except for proprietary device support).
