Part Categories / Types

• We could probably make our device categorization a better match to what teams are actually doing - we should be very sensitive to what they are doing device-wise during the part submission / acceptance screen and dynamically rework some of the categories.
• TK: Two Top-Level divisions Input Devices, Output Devices, and Signal Processing Devices

Part-type documentation

• Enough background and a clear enough definition of the type for teams to use the page essentially as a recipe for making more instantiations of that part of type, intentionally.

Part-type specific fields

• Protein coding regions
  • ECS number
  • Genbank / EMBL number
  • PDB Code

• Reporters
  • Excitation wavelength
  • Emission wavelength
