In addition, Labview graphical front panel controls and indicators help engineers interactively experiment and debug their embedded code much more quickly than conventional approaches, says NI.
The Labview Embedded Development Module includes more than 400 analysis functions for signal processing, linear algebra, curve fitting, statistics and calculus.
In addition to out-of-the-box measurement functionality for integrating real-world data early in the process, the module also features a framework for integrating I/O drivers and board support packages for taking advantage of specific processors with Labview.
Scientists and engineers can develop their applications using the Labview graphical environment and then automatically generate C code to integrate with their chosen processor tool chains.
"The NI Labview Embedded Development Module marks a very significant milestone in the quest to empower a broad base of users with access to the latest design, development, test and measurement technologies," said Jerry McGuire, general manager of the media platform and service group at Analog Devices.
