Once you go full tin-foil hat, you want silicon level validation. And when you find out that isn't really viable, you realize that an open source driver that uses high-level silicon functions isn't all that different from a binary

While this is well made, in production you would probably put the physics model in Excel with a bunch of VB scripting, and interface it to parameters and equations in solidworks. This isn't something I've done, but I absolutely wo
