Center for Excellence for Developing Real-Time Applications in NI LabVIEW
Faculty Coordinator: Dr. Manish Kalra (Assistant Professor)
Technical Assistant: Mr. Pramod Tomar
LabVIEW is the graphical programming environment, i.e., it includes graphical language in the program instead of script. This feature of LabVIEW makes it easier to program and work with its associated hardware. However, it is not limited to that, we can easily attach it to any hardware, regardless of the vendor. Further, we can integrate it with state-of-the-art programming languages like Python and C. Furthermore, LabVIEW has thousands of analysis functions, which makes it versatile.
Objectives:
- Introduce the fundamental principles of LabVIEW programming.
- Debug the basic building blocks of programming structures to provide hands-on experience with NI myRIO, NI ELVIS, and NI myDAQ.
- Equip students and faculty members with the fundamental concepts and tools of LabVIEW design and programming. Finally, at the end of the training program, students should be able to get placement in core companies.
- The laboratory possesses computers that are well-equipped with the licensed version of LabVIEW.
- The laboratory is equipped with Controls and embedded software, signal processing, and communication software.
- Apart from software, the laboratory is very well equipped with versatile hardware as well. To provide hands-on learning experiences, the laboratory offers NI myRIO units, each equipped with a sensor kit.
- The LabVIEW laboratory also provides the Process control trainer kit with the compressor and accessories.
