RPI Students Design and Build Two-Wheeled Human/Object Transporter
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) students designed and built a two-wheeled balancing transporter in their mechatronics senior design course. They designed and implemented the control system using the LabVIEW Simulation Module and deployed it on NI CompactRIO to integrate I/O.
Read how students completed this project from the ground up in one semester.
Watch a demonstration video from the NIWeek 2006 keynote presentation.
Graphically Program DSPs with the New LabVIEW DSP Module 2.0
Program DSPs without using C or assembly code by using the new LabVIEW DSP Module. With hundreds of built-in signal processing functions, professors can use the module to teach signal processing and introductory engineering concepts using targets such as NI SPEEDY-33, and Texas Instruments TI C6416, TI C6713, and TI C6711 DSKs.
