Sarah83 Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 Hi! Now the second post in the Lounge I asked myself for what all these persons here use LabView in detail. We make navigation systems for helicopters and test our hardware with LabView. Quote Link to comment
didierj Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 There are many possiblities... e.g. use it as your main programming language, other use C++ or Delphi. In our facility we use LV as the control unit for the different automation systems, like DIE bonder, Wire bonder, calibration system,... Didier Quote Link to comment
James McAnanama Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 We build commercial printing equipment. We use LV and LabWindows CVI for our custom production and test equipment - machine vision, laser gauges, paste dispensing etc. and to monitor our waste water tx plants. Quote Link to comment
Bryan Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 When I worked at Corning Inc., I used it for automating passive and active measurement and calibration processes for free space and fiber optic devices... mostly controlling GPIB and RS232 instrumentation and collecting data (I then used VBA macros I wrote for Excel to format that same data). I've also used LabVIEW for machine vision and data acquisition. Currently, I'm using it for input simulation and output montioring for embedded software verification. Quote Link to comment
Mikrobi Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 We use LabVIEW for two directions: First is let's say native: automated laboratory magnetic thin films research (photoconductivity and magnetic domain image processing). Second is little exotic: conferences system services with voting and audio recording handling. regards Mikrobi Quote Link to comment
skywalkerxp Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 We use labview for HVAC System Autocontrol Skywalkerxp Quote Link to comment
xseadog Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Greeting from Denmark. :thumbup: In response to your question, we use Labview to control our ATE's for our satellite communication terminals chow xseadog Quote Link to comment
Jack Kelledes Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 I work for a specialized battery manufacturer and I use LabVIEW for running semi- and fully-automated test systems and for data acquisition. Jack Quote Link to comment
Spinaker Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Hi all, also greetings from Denmark. We use LV to develop control and monitoring of a water works. regards Spinaker Quote Link to comment
todd Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Just north of Seattle, WA (US) - LV runs my custom ATE to characterize a programmable system on chip (PSoC). It's a reconfigurable analog array + reconfig digital + microprocessor. Someone else here uses LV as an automation interface to the chip's IDE (free download). Quote Link to comment
evargas Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 I don't use LabVIEW at my "real life" job. I use LabVIEW to develop the tools on my small business, VI Security. Quote Link to comment
MWS Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 I use LabView to programming Test-Processes to testing our Products, which we developped. This Test-Process is running with our Hardware, which i developped by self! We made Poducts for house-installations, which adjust the Light and jalousie and many more!! Quote Link to comment
Jimmy-Chen Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 I use LabVIEW for Set Top Box(STB) test. Quote Link to comment
roxe Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 Why I use LV?The answer is..My lovely supervisor ask me to use it with Matlab for our new project..Computer Aided Education in Electrical Engineering (Induction Motor Simulation).. Quote Link to comment

Paulo Almeida Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 Hi, I'm using LV to develop control and monitoring a several educational process via Internet :headbang: . Regards Quote Link to comment
David Boyd Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 North of Atlanta, Georgia... In the 6+ years I've been here (Respironics), I've used LV for production testing of sleep diagnostic recorders, infant apnea monitors, CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure - for people whose airways occlude during sleep), and medical oxygen concentrators, plus all sorts of little 'quickie' lab tests. Prior to that, I used LV (4.0.1 - 4.1 days) to test secure telephone equipment and other government/military voice/data crypto gear at L-3. If I had been smart, I would've started using it back in '92-'93 when it was first demo'ed to me. I was one of those obstinate types who thought it could never do what I needed it to do.... I was a C programmer, y'know... ah well... Dave Quote Link to comment
proximableu Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 I use LabVIEW for test equipment. We testing our products, which is many, most of them electro-mechanical.. So far the best language I ever seen . DeLaval, Sweden, Milk Equipment production Quote Link to comment
erdmannjs Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 I use Labview with VXI and PXI instruments in our Hydro-Acoustic Test Facilaty. We've written our Dads (Digital Acoustic Data System) with it plus many other utilities. I.E. Control and logging. Beginning a project with CompactFieldPoint to replace our aging Heating, Cooling, Pressurization System on our two large Pressure tanks. Jeffery S.

i2dx Posted January 1, 2005 Report Share Posted January 1, 2005 I use LabVIEW to create fully automated Test-Systems in the Automotive-Industries, eg. end-of-line testers, development-test-systems, laboratory test rigs, ect ... most of my software contains: Hardware IO (DAQ, DAQmx) in 99% of all cases with National Instruments Hardware, Database Connectivity, etc.. currently i am working on an ECU testing system (since 3 month, time left: 2 month) Quote Link to comment
Mike Ashe Posted January 1, 2005 Report Share Posted January 1, 2005 Hmm, how far to go back... I have used LabVIEW for (partial list): - Submarine weapons handling system immulation and test (VME based) - Submarine torpedo circuits and modules test (VXI, GPIB, serial) (my first test executive) - Biomedical image processing with ConceptVi (before NI bought and renamed to IMAQ) - RF antenna / radio switching control - Cable Modem box production testing - Data retrieval from a no-longer-supported church membership database - Professional Observatory/Telescope control (SOAR Telescope in Chile) Current Projects: - Hospital Bed Management system. (no hardware, distributed client-server via TCP/IP) - Fruit Inspection and Grading/Sorting - Open Source development (Open Source Test Executive, WorkSpace2003, OpenG tools) I must say, working with LabVIEW I have not been bored ...

LuI Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 Oh what a Q ! I started back with LV3 on WfW 3.11, more than 10 years ago. Did DAQ & analysis in biomedical research. Later some basic control of research equipment added. Now in my current job I use it to create helper tools (tests for medical devices, simulations, data transformations etc.), to devellop ATE projects for medical devices and do some special research projets in the medical area. The last bigger project was a 96 channel ECG recording device with ECG mapping calculations and display. This one measures and displays the time-course and movement of the excitement of the heart muscle in a non-invasive way. This allows to detect defects in the cardiac function. Quote Link to comment
pauld Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 I use LabVIEW to generate, and output physiological waveforms with a high level of control, to test the algorithms in our medical equipment. The flexibility of LabVIEW has been realised at our facility, and we are in the middle of creating a simulator that will simulate all of the parameters our equipment can monitor. This currently includes ECG, CO2, Temp, PCO2, and blood pressure. Quote Link to comment
regisphilbin Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 We use labview to as the software which controls Medical electrode Mfg machines. The custom machines are built in-house and controlled with a host PC with Fieldpoint Units. One of our processes is a liquid batch mixing operation. Another is similar to a laminating/converting machine with assembly line automation. Regis Quote Link to comment
tengels Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 Hi, we use LabView to automate Test and Measurement equipment. We are working for all kind off industries and universitys. Quote Link to comment
