Implementation of a Web Interface to Display Real-Time Statistics of a Dilution Refrigerator
- Fermilab
The purpose of the project is to communicate with a Bluefors control unit and extract data. The Bluefors control unit is a piece of experimental equipment that measures various different data points in a dilution refrigerator and stores them. The goal was to access the control unit using the websockets library in Python. After accessing the control unit, the goal was to export the data to a web page in HTML/CSS. The tools that were used changed throughout the project. Python was used to communicate with the Bluefors unit via JSON requests and JSON objects, then the Python hosted its own websocket server to act as a proxy server to allow for the web page to access the data. This was done to bypass SSL verification. Then, the web page, which was created using JavaScript, React, Next.js, and NodeJS, accesses the proxy server to import the data from the dilution refrigerator and display the values in real time on the page.
