A Smarter, More Flexible Platform for Modern Engineering

Lightwave Precision, LLC Jupiter I.O. DAQ BoardThe Jupiter IO Board is a powerful and versatile platform designed for engineers, developers, and makers who want more than a standard data acquisition system. It merges the real-world interfacing capabilities of a traditional DAQ board with the open-ended potential of a full-featured development environment — and it's built to support rapid AI-assisted application development.

Designed with an open-source philosophy, the Jupiter IO ecosystem includes fully customizable firmware and a Python-based GUI, enabling users to tailor both hardware and software to their specific needs. Whether you're using traditional coding workflows or leveraging AI tools to generate firmware routines and analysis scripts, Jupiter IO provides the foundation.

An intuitive, fully interactive control panel (shown below) enables real-time monitoring, configuration, and testing of both analog and digital I/O — making it easy to prototype, optimize, and deploy intelligent control solutions with or without writing code from scratch.
