Described as being a new approach to test and measurement, Generative Instrumentation enables engineers to create custom instruments and configure complex systems to fit their exact needs using AI and natural language prompts, representing a significant leap beyond traditional instrument design.

By vastly improving users’ productivity and their ability to customise and optimise their test setup, Agentic AI is helping to open up the capability to adapt to specialised applications, automate complex test scenarios, and respond to dynamically changing requirements.

"We see a future where engineers and scientists describe what they want, and the instrument configures itself,” said Dr. Rory Smith, Lead AI Instrumentation Engineer at Liquid Instruments. “Generative Instrumentation won’t just simplify everyday tasks - it will enable the creation of entirely new capabilities on demand, unlocking test setups that were previously impossible or impractical.”

This new capability, supported in an upcoming release of MokuOS, is enabled by the launch of Moku:Delta, the company’s fourth generation hardware platform which delivers:

  • A high resolution, 2 GHz oscilloscope
  • A spectrum analyser that provides full 2 GHz bandwidth down to 0 Hz for 1/f noise measurements
  • The highest-channel count, ultra-low noise, microwave lock-in amplifier
  • Up to 8 instrument slots and 15 standard instruments
  • More than 2 billion possible custom instrument configurations

“We created Moku:Delta to help engineers go faster, think bigger, and stay focused on the hard problems,” said Daniel Shaddock, CEO of Liquid Instruments. “It’s also the first step in a new era of generative instrumentation, bringing together the performance of hardware, the flexibility of software, and the creative potential of AI.”

Liquid Instruments is developing a suite of Moku platforms that includes the Moku:Go, Moku:Lab, Moku:Pro, and now the Moku:Delta to help engineers and scientists drive innovation in industries as varied as quantum, semiconductor, and aerospace and defence. 

Moku:Delta is available to order now.
