That would be great. A few months ago in our (biophysics-ish) lab, I set up Grafana and InfluxDB to display output from some of our equipment during experiments as a bit of a gimmick, since I had just figured out how to extract real-time data from the machines and had used Grafana for monitoring my own servers. But rather than remaining a gimmick, while at times we've run into cases that feel a bit outside of Grafana's intended use, it has actually become our preferred way of watching the experiments, and far more useful than the manufacturer's software. With buttons and an ability to include some basic control interfaces, Grafana could well replace our everyday need for the manufacturer's software entirely.
