Join us for an exciting hands-on introduction to Industrial Measurements and Control Featuring LabVIEW and CompactRIO offered by National Instruments engineers here on the UW campus! LabVIEW is used everywhere on campus, including numerous classrooms and research projects, as well as in research labs and by numerous companies around the world. This is a good opportunity to get free, hands-on experience with the environment used heavily for data acquisition, signal processing, controls, and various instrumentation needs across UW and in the industry.

Topics covered in this 3 hour hands-on session include:

• See how you can use LabVIEW to ddesign control systems with field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), real-time operating systems, and industrial I/O
• Learn hhow to develop LabVIEW Real-Time and LabVIEW FPGA applications for better code reuse and easier debugging
• Use high-level graaphical programming to design your own custom reconfigurable FPGA hardware
• Conduct hands-on exercises with NI CompactRIO, iincluding data flow and parallelism, and network communication
• See hhow you can use LabVIEW FPGA for motion control, custom digital communication, and system timing and synchronization applications
