Welcome to SPIAKID Simulator’s documentation!

The SPIAKID project aims at designing, building and deploying on the sky a spectrophotometric imager based on Kinetic Inductance Detectors. The pixels of these detectors are constituted by oscillating LC circuits manufactured with a supraconducting material. The simulator goal is to simulate the output of the SPIAKID’s detectors in order to develop the DRS.

The simulator is at its first version. Work in progress.

The development is made on gitlab if there is any issue, bug or request.
