1) Design a method or an experiment (either in theory or if possible, with real measurements), determine the accuracy of this instrument.

2) Design a method or an experiment (either in theory or if possible, with real measurements), determine the precision of this instrument.

3) Design a method or an experiment (either in theory or if possible, with real measurements), calibrate this instrument.

4) Determine the input and output of this instrument.

5. Determine the sensitivity of this instrument, make any reasonable assumptions if needed. How to improve the sensitivity of this instrument?

6. Perform an uncertainty analysis on this instrument, make any reasonable assumptions if needed. Determine the most effective way to improve the uncertainty of this instrument.

7. Any other analyses on the instrument will be a bonus
