    digital scan control on a JEOL 840 with the OBI (open beam interface). you can build it yourself for ~$600 in parts. old SEMs still get great resolution! you could turn this into an ebeam lithography setup too

    Someone should really pick up this RCA EMU (1940s TEM) on eBay and put it in a museum ebay.com/itm/1960126164…

    Vector and raster based position control, fully stream-based: there is no frame buffer, you can read and write an arbitrary number of points with low latency. lots of automation potential!

    Introducing the first open source SEM digital image capture solution, the Open Beam Interface! GitHub: github.com/nanographs/Ope… Bring your analog SEM into the digital world, all over one USB type-C connection. Taking orders now for our first batch of 6 boards, DM for details.

    this is an analog storage oscilloscope! I’m moving the beam in x and y with the knobs, and the signal persists on the display. there’s no digital memory, it’s just a special CRT.

    but actually, it opens the Danger Window into the electron gun of this SEM
