LinuxDevices: Juggling with Light–Using Real-Time Linux in Molecular Physiology

“FSMLabs RTLinux is widely used in scientific research. In this
project, University of Vermont researchers Dave Warshaw and Joe
Patlak make use of one of the most basic features of RTCore–an
interrupt-driven data acquisition routine that performs feedback
control, takes commands from applications running on Linux, and
passes data back to the non-real-time programs in user space. What
is remarkable about Warshaw and Patlak’s experiments, though, is
that they use RTLinux to make laser light manipulate individual
molecules…”
