Quoting from the website,
"PHOENIX: Physics with Homemade Equipment and Innovative Experiments
Phoenix is developed using Free Software tools and distributed under GNU GPL.
The basic design of Phoenix is well documented and a set of
experiments have been developed. To make it really useful , we need
more number of experiments. It should come from the academic
community. As per the suggetions from the governing council, IUAC is
announcing some prizes for developing new experiments.
The experiment submitted should be usable as a 2 to 3 hour lab
experiment at Degree / PG level , having some amount of data analysis
involved. The cost of sensors etc. to be added to the basic Phoenix
box should be reasonable. . . . . . . "
