SpoolBit: Pneumatic Simulator

Dive into the world of industrial automation with SpoolBit, an interactive simulation tool designed to demonstrate the fundamentals of pneumatic logic. This application provides a detailed look at how air pressure can be used to store information through mechanical spool movement.
SpoolBit simplifies complex engineering concepts into a visual, hands-on experience, making it an excellent resource for students, hobbyists, and anyone curious about how industrial systems think.
Key Features:
• Interactive Pulse Striker: Send SET and RESET signals to control the system. Observe real-time telemetry, including spool velocity and cycle counts, with tactile haptic feedback.
• Spool Tracker Visualization: Watch a cross-section of the physical spool move between chambers. Study mechanical specifications like stroke length and component behavior during transitions.
• Pressure Routing Map: Follow the flow of air from the supply port to the output. The dynamic map highlights active paths, helping you understand the internal plumbing of pneumatic memory.
• Memory State Readout: Monitor the logical output through a visual indicator. Use the integrated truth table to verify how SET and RESET inputs determine the final state.
• Adjustable Simulation Speed: Tailor the experience to your learning pace. Use the precision slider to slow down the mechanism and study every frame of the mechanical transition.
• Educational Theory: Access a dedicated section explaining the physics behind RS-Flip Flops and how air-powered cells function as mechanical gates.
• Auto-Cycle Mode: Enable continuous operation to observe the system’s logic and airflow patterns hands-free.

Whether you are studying mechanical engineering, automation, or digital logic, SpoolBit offers a clear and interactive way to master the mechanics of pneumatic switches and industrial memory gates.
