Detailed assembly instructions of hardware components.Bill of materials for sourcing and purchasing materials.Arduino firmware to send commands to the motors and receive commands from the GUI.Controller software (Python) and a graphical user interface (GUI) to control the pumps.Computer Aided Design (CAD) files of the 3D printed components.The pumps and microscope can be run from a Windows, Mac, Linux, or Raspberry Pi computer with an easy to use GUI. The microscope and pumps can be used together in microfluidics experiments, or independently for other applications. It uses 3D printed parts and common components that can be easily purchased either from Amazon or other retailers. It costs less than $400 and can be assembled in an hour. The poseidon syringe pump and microscope system is an open source alternative to commercial systems.
