Liquid Instruments

Liquid Instruments is an Australian technology company that creates advanced test and measurement devices for engineers, scientists, and students. Their products combine multiple laboratory instruments into a single, software-driven device, making testing and experimentation more efficient and cost-effective.

The company’s main product line, Moku, replaces traditional lab equipment like oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and signal generators with a flexible, programmable system. Instead of using separate bulky tools, users can switch between functions on a touchscreen or computer, saving space and improving workflow.

Liquid Instruments' technology is based on Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs)—powerful chips that can be reconfigured for different tasks in real time. This makes their devices ideal for research, product development, and education.

Founded by scientists and engineers from the Australian National University and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Liquid Instruments helps professionals and students perform high-precision measurements with cutting-edge, user-friendly technology.

 

“Melbourne’s emergence as a hub for advanced technology, innovation, and manufacturing makes it the perfect choice for our expansion. 

By establishing our presence at Melbourne Connect, we’re positioning ourselves at the intersection of academia, industry, and innovation — exactly where the next generation of test and measurement solutions will arise. 

This move strengthens our ability to collaborate with Victoria’s leading researchers and technology companies.”

— Daniel Shaddock, co-founder and CEO of Liquid Instruments.

Developing complex technologies requires increasingly sophisticated test systems, but the uniqueness of most applications demands adaptable, customised configurations. Traditional multi-instrument setups add significant cost and time, both upfront and throughout the test cycle. Liquid Instruments’ reconfigurable Moku is the only integrated test solution engineered for seamless customisation — whether for simple tests or intricate multi-instrument environments. Used in hundreds of labs worldwide, Moku accelerates the journey from idea to implementation by an order of magnitude, cutting the time and cost of advanced research and development. Designed by researchers for researchers, Moku delivers unparalleled efficiency in today’s most complex test scenarios while adapting to your evolving needs in the future.
