Osqoop

Osqoop is a multi-platform open source software oscilloscope based on Qt 4. It connects to various hardware data sources such as the sound input or a dedicated USB board. Osqoop provides real-time signal processing through a plugin architecture.

Compilation

Osqoop uses cmake (http://cmake.org) and is thus easy to compile. It supports out of source build and should compile on any major desktop operating system. To quickly compile and run Osqoop under Unix, type the following:

mkdir build && mkdir target
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../target ..
make
make install
cd ../target && bin/osqoop

Usage

Osqoop comes with an end-user manual. Look at in the doc/manual directory.

On Linux, the sound card datasource uses OSS, which is outdated now, as ALSA is the standard. However, ALSA provides a OSS-wrapper, called aoss. If you launch Osqoop through it:

aoss osqoop

the sound card datasource should work.

Hacking

Osqoop is fully documented through Doxygen. Run doxygen to build the developer documentation in doc/dev.
