ssmdevices is a collection of python wrappers that have been used for complex automated experiments at NIST. They are released here for transparency, for re-use of the drivers ``as-is'' by collaborators and the broader test community, and as a demonstration of lab automation based on labbench.
The equipment includes consumer wireless communication hardware, test instruments, diagnostic software, and other miscellaneous lab electronics. In many cases the acquired data are returned in tabular form as pandas data frames.
