DDR Software

• CGLX
• Cross-Platform Cluster Graphic Library is a
  flexible, transparent OpenGL-based graphics
  framework for distributed high performance

Sensor Calibration

• Vs. Water Volume
• Need to discover the mathematical relationship
  between the water volume and the resistance read
• Vs. Time
• Need to compare the resistance read for a fixed
  volume over a long period of time to check
  sampling rate
