High-precision measurements are essential for advancing research in spintronics and materials characterization. To enable such progress, highly precise and accurate automation software is required.PICA (Python-based Instrument Control and Automation) is a modular, open-source software suite designed to automate advanced transport measurements for electronic devices and chemical samples. PICA is designed as a versatile framework capable of operating on any standard laboratory workstation.

It provides an extensible, unified graphical user interface (GUI) for orchestrating high-precision instruments, specifically current source (DC/AC) units, nanovoltmeters, high resistance electrometers, impedance analyser, and temperature controllers. Built on the robust Python scientific ecosystem, PICA leverages community standard libraries as an alternative to licenced commercial software for instrument control.

By utilising `threading` and `multiprocessing` capabilities, PICA ensures that the entire hardware ecosystem functions seamlessly and as a single cohesive unit. This allows the system to perform automated protocols, including temperature-dependent wide range resistance measurement (10^{-8} - 10^{16} Ohm), current voltage (I-V) characterisation, capacitance characterisation, and pyroelectric current measurement, and orchestrates measurements under varying magnetic fields and temperatures without requiring physical reconfiguration of the measurement setups.
