The aim of this course is to introduce students to the LabVIEW programming environment. The LabVIEW has become a standard in both scientific research and industry, especially in the areas of data acquisition and instrument control, making it important for students to learn how to best use LabVIEW and its programming environment. Students will become familiar with graphical programming basics; file input/output, signal generation and processing, and data acquisition and analysis. At the end of this course students will be expected to have the ability to write high-level LabVIEW programs that can be implemented in both research and industry environments. Each class will include lectures and hands on exercises. Student will also complete a final project which will be related to their own research agenda.
Students are introduced into programming in LabView environment. |
