What We Do
We implement solutions that make your science a reality.
Janelia Experimental Technology (jET) designs, builds and tests commercially unavailable instruments, tools, and software. We listen to Janelia researchers to understand their needs, share ideas, and then execute on a technical plan. We collaborate throughout the process, from concept to completion. We are constantly improving our design engineering and manufacturing to ensure we can build cost-effective tools fast.

Services
We provide in-house assistance to researchers through a complete life cycle of system development leveraging our wide scope of skills--from mechanical, electrical, and optical engineering to software systems design and implementation.
We offer expertise in:
- Data acquisition and analysis
- Machine vision and image processing
- Precision machining
- Embedded systems design and programming
- Laser, microscopy, and optical imaging systems engineering
- Custom circuit design
- Novel sensor systems
- Lab automation, robotics and motion control
- Mechanical design, machined and/or fabricated components and assemblies
- Process automation
The Janelia Experimental Technology facility has a complete workshop for electronics and machine vision development, data acquisition system design, control system development, assembly, and testing. The jET facility also has a metrology and optics lab, suitable for quality assessments of fabricated parts and systems development for optical microscopy.

Design and Invention at Janelia
Anthony Leonardo and former instrument design specialist Jason Osborne design and build tiny backpacks to study dragonfly flight.
Central Machine Shop
The Facility operates a staffed central machine and fabrication shop which utilizes computer numerical control (CNC) machinery with enhanced functions, including wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) and 3D printing capabilities for rapid prototyping.
