PHY 5635 - LabVIEW Interfacing and Robotics (4)

When Offered: Spring
An applications-oriented course designed to create programs written in the LabVIEW language for hardware interfacing. Data acquisition and control hardware is used to collect data from sensors and instruments which is then analyzed and displayed using LabVIEW. The hardware is also used to control devices such as motors and a five-axis robotic arm. Other topics covered include rotary encoders, state machines, and PID control. The topics covered will prepare students to take the National Instruments CLAD certification exam.
Prerequisite: PHY 5020 or PHY 5735 or PHY 5740.
Lecture three hours, laboratory three hours.
