Experiments

To Do List

  • Figure out the MATLAB memory leak
    • I suspect this is because I'm not closing the image files properly in the MATLAB script that runs, or it could be something more annoying.
    • Does the leak influence the timing of the events, by making the image processing take too long? (e.g. why does the timing graph get noisy after awhile?)
    • Is it the MATLAB thread that blows up or the LabView?
  • output the direction of sorting to the output file
  • Make the list of experiments to evaluate the device performance limits.
  • Work on the model and compare to experimental results.
  • How much faster can we drive it given the timing?
  • Are there more or less cells in a sort vs a screen?
    • No, looked at this before last lab meeting, but should write it up.
  • Do fluctuations in the total cell count correlate with anything?
  • Move all the pictures from the last run to the same HD (back up the ones from the long zigzag run).
    • Waiting for the new drive to come in.
  • Clean up the MATLAB scripts (particularly the image processing, have lots of old versions lying around).

Done

  • Change the code so that when flipping based on the CFP it is the moving average that is used, rather than a single image.
