This page needs work. There are far more scientific instruments than the five listed so far. Recommend instruments be added and once it starts to get unwieldly to subdivide them into classes and creating a reverse index, i.e. datum -> instrument(s). Also recommend adding and linking a stub on the fields of measument, eg: photogrammetry, interferometry, etc. Not sure if a list of manufacturers is applicable, but it is useful if currently very incomplete. In the meantime, I'll add a few off the top of my head. Should something like a borescope be included in this list? ~~spacedan

I'm going to going to just add in instruments as I think of them. I agree that the list needs to eventually be subdivided into classes.Giantnegro (talk) 20:36, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As we go - what do you think about a table of both instruments in each category but also links to open-source hardware verisons? I think it is line with the wikipedia mission. My only concern is that most are very new and there has not been a lot of articles written about them to pass wikipedia noteworthy status. I have only found one Science article talking abou the general concept. PLOS One has published some individual tools as well. -Luli17 (talk) 21:16, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
