What have you made, that could be physically shared with my undergraduate physics majors, next term, in Intermediate Experimental Methods?

@MQMLab Maybe this? It's a photodiode detector made for cheap that recorded waves in a Neon discharge tube at as high a time resolution as I could record. Housing was PVC. Couple Edmund lenses and a cheap photodiode.

@pmmiller8 That could fit nicely, given that in Modern Physics my students play a bit, building a discriminator, which they feed into a Teensy 3.2, to look at interval statistics on single-photon detection. What time resolution did you achieve?

@MQMLab We just released an object tracker that works in the browser. You might try to model the motion of a ping pong ball or beach ball with it. Just try to record against a solid colored background go.osu.edu/objecttracker
