National Instruments LabVIEW PID Control Toolkit, LabVIEW RT, and any of our measurement products allow you to quickly develop programs for automated control systems from a simple RC circuit to an inverted pendulum to an embedded, real-time control system. Other examples of experiments suitable for computer-based measurement and automation are analysis of linear automatic control systems in time and frequency domains, stability analysis, and state variable analysis of continuous and discrete-time systems.
