In terms of software platforms, we build systems using LabVIEW, which is a programming language, and TestStand, which is a test management framework. But what does this look like in terms of hardware platforms?
Who is our preferred hardware supplier?
In addition to the fact that our primary tools are LabVIEW and TestStand, both of which are software from National Instruments (NI), our preferred hardware supplier is also NI. But why?
This is partly because we have many years of experience showing that the solutions you can develop with NI’s software and hardware are the highest-quality solutions when it comes to developing specialized systems for projects within test, measurement, and control.
But what do we mean more specifically when we say solutions of the highest quality? In short, we have many years of experience that investing in a high-quality system ultimately saves both time and money. This is because, for example, you avoid having a system that fails, is difficult to maintain, or does not perform as intended.
Examples of hardware
Since in most of our projects we work with test, measurement, and control, we primarily use PXI, CompactRIO, CompactDAQ, and PC, which you can read more about here:
