Seems a quiescent enough spot for my first post to this forum. I first started using Labview in 1991, at my first job out of grad school working at Texaco's Beacon, NY research facility. I used it for a variety of data acquisition and data analysis tasks throughout my 8 years of doing combustion and engine research there. In 1999 I found a job as a contract engineer at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, helping to setup the ground test equipment for the GLAS instrument on ICESat. After ICESat launched in Jan 2003, I switched contracting companies to work for Sigma Space Corporation, but still do most of my work at NASA GSFC for the Laboratory of Laser Remote Sensing. I do a variety of quick and dirty R&D Lab setups, and some (almost sophisticated) analysis of engineering data from the GLAS orbital telemetry. My latest projects are setup of the ground test equipment for the LOLA (Lunar Orbital Laser Altimeter) instrument on LRO (Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter), and some (very) basic pseudo-random code laser altimetry modelling.
For what do you use LabView?
