The LabView programming environment from National Instruments (NI) simplifies hardware integration for engineering applications and provides consistency for users acquiring data from NI and third-party hardware. It reduces the complexity of programming, enabling users to focus on their unique engineering problems and visualize solutions with built-in, drag-and-drop engineering user interface creation and integrated data viewers. Developers can create algorithms for data analysis and advanced control with included math and signal processing IP or use their own libraries from a variety of tools.
