Today's hardware and software tools can convert ordinary personal
computers into high performance technical workstations. LabVIEW is a
revolutionary programming environment used to acquire data, control
processes, perform analysis, and display and store data. Its graphical
language is far more intuitive than traditional text-based languages.
Graphical programming is so popular among scientists and engineers that it
has come to be known as G.
Use G to get an A!
All attendees receive a free CD which includes example software and
solutions for mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, physics,
chemistry, and the life sciences. Because the solutions are written in G, you
can easily modify them to suit your needs.
Latest Technologies
PXI – The state-of-the-art modular instrumentation with exceptional
performance. See how you can acquire a PXI system for half the cost of list
price!
LabVIEW RT – You can now program in the same friendly development
environment to control your applications in a deterministic manner. Find out
about this cost-effective real-time hardware and software bundle available
only to academia!
Computer-Based Instruments – Do you wish your instrument had the same
storage capacity and processing power as your computer? You can now combine
such features of your computer with a100 MHz oscilloscope, a multimeter, or a
datalogger.
Academic Software Solutions Licenses – National Instruments has
just reduced the prices of department, college, and campus licenses. Licenses
