BREAD Local Software

BREAD Local Software

BREAD (Broadly Reconfigurable and Expandable Automation Device) is an open-source hardware and software platform designed for rapid system development and integration. It allows for custom “slices” that connect into a central “loaf,” enabling modular control and monitoring of complex systems. Slices are developed using open-source and easily accessible materials and software. This platform is very flexible and can interface with many inputs and outputs. The BREAD BiOS project focuses on enhancing the existing BREAD-based automation system integrated into the chem department’s bioreactor. This bioreactor converts waste plastic to protein through a chemical process. Precise environmental control is critical to the success of these processes.

About

Open Source Hardware specializes in building low-cost alternatives to expensive hardware/software, and then sharing the designs with the commons so that collaborative improvements can be made rapidly. Anyone can make changes or updates to the designs the Enterprise team creates—through this process, designs are improved at a much higher rate than would be possible within the Enterprise alone. Open source is all about collaboration.
