Description

This course is designed to equip engineers, scientists, and students with the technical expertise needed to develop sophisticated data acquisition systems, control systems, and automation applications using LabVIEW. You’ll gain hands-on experience with LabVIEW’s graphical programming environment to design, prototype, and deploy systems that interact with real-world hardware.

Starting from the basics, you’ll learn how to create Virtual Instruments (VIs) for data measurement and processing, and integrate LabVIEW with a variety of hardware for data acquisition (DAQ), signal conditioning, and real-time control. The course will cover topics such as signal analysis, filtering, and visualization, along with advanced techniques like creating custom libraries and utilizing built-in LabVIEW functions for control algorithms such as PID.

As the course progresses, you’ll dive into real-time systems and interface LabVIEW with external devices like sensors, actuators, and embedded systems, gaining experience in designing and implementing both open-loop and closed-loop control systems. You will also develop proficiency in troubleshooting, debugging, and optimizing LabVIEW applications to ensure efficient, high-performance operation in industrial, research, and automation environments.

By the end of this course, you will be capable of designing and deploying LabVIEW applications for complex automation and control systems, troubleshooting and optimizing code for performance, and integrating LabVIEW with real-time hardware for mission-critical applications.
