Industries We Serve
Scientific Research
We are best known for our development and collaboration in the field of nuclear physics. Our fully customizable line of digitizers feature multi-channel digital pulse processing, and FPGA based transient signal capture and analysis.
Our devices are currently deployed in labs across the nation. We are collecting data at Argonne National Lab, Sanford Underground Research Facility (LZ Dark Matter Experiment), Lawrence Berkeley, and the Facility for Rare Isotype Beams.
Our digitizers are customizable from 2 to over 1000 channels. Our devices share an ecosystem of software allowing a seamless workflow across all devices.
Education
We are diligently finalizing educational kits for the Vireo, our powerful yet affordable two-channel digitizer designed for the next generation of scientists.
In collaboration with graduate and undergraduate labs at University of Rochester, Tennessee Tech University, and more, we are currently testing and refining starter experiments for the kit.
Our kit features: Our two-channel digitizer: Vireo, two NaI(TI) gamma scintillator crystal detectors, Jupyter notebook experiments, and an interactive web-based GUI hosted on the digitizer.
Mining - Muon Tomography
At (6.5 x 3.5 x 2 inches), the Vireo is one of the most portable digitizers on the market today.
The Vireo is perfect for muon tomography applications, it digitizes signals from scintillators or PMTs which could be used to generate 3D density maps that can reveal ore deposits, hidden voids, and structural weaknesses—all without the need for invasive drilling or excavation. Its small form factor makes it perfect for tight underground environments where traditional setups can’t go.
We’ve conducted numerous cosmic ray detection demonstrations at conferences and nuclear physics meetings using coincidence detection techniques, which the Vireo natively supports. For more detailed information, feel free to email us at info@skutek.com.
Data Management
Our custom solutions for data management involve both data streaming and collection.
Our Solidago is a UDP Event Generator that emulates a lab environment and data acquisition systems. The Solidago can generate up to sixteen 10 GBps UDP streams with configurable packet and event formats. It is an ideal way to develop data management systems or to stress-test networking hardware.
