LabVIEW Robotics 2009 released
14 April 2010
Design Automation
LabVIEW Robotics 2009 is the new version of National Instruments’ graphical system design software that provides a standard development platform for designing robotic and autonomous control systems. It delivers an extensive robotics library with connectivity to standard robotic sensors and actuators, foundational algorithms for intelligent operations, and perception and motion functions for robots and autonomous vehicles. With this new software, engineers and scientists can access seamless deployment to real-time embedded and field programmable gate array (FPGA) hardware, and can maximise software flexibility through integration with a variety of processing platforms, third-party software tools and prebuilt robot platforms.
Because of its open graphical system design platform, LabVIEW Robotics 2009 can import code from other languages including C/C++, .m files and VHDL, and communicate with a wide variety of sensors using built-in drivers for everything from LIDAR, IR and sonar, to GPS devices, to reduce development time and allow engineers to focus on adding their own algorithms and intelligence. In addition, the software includes new robotics IP capable of easy implementation to real-time and embedded hardware for obstacle avoidance, inverse kinematics and search algorithms to help an autonomous system or robot plan an optimal path.
