Ocean Optics Spectrometer

This service controls an Ocean Optics Spectrometer. It is a wrapper around the python-seabreeze package. The python-seabreeze package needs to be installed first, and the page also explain how to install the spectrometer drivers needed for windows.

python-seabreeze package: https://python-seabreeze.readthedocs.io/

The service has been successfully tested with the following ocean optics spectrometer:
