Abstract

This paper describes the development of an automatic measurement platform to study physical phenomena that depend on angular spatial position. The design concept focuses on a versatile and flexible system to be used in different science fields. The platform controls a goniometer angular motion, generates phenomena stimulus, and performs data logging and visualization. The measurement platform was developed with Matlab and Arduino integration. Platform performance was evaluated in two different fields, acoustics and lighting.
