SINGAPORE /PRNewswire/ -- NI (Nasdaq: NATI),
the provider of platform-based systems that enable engineers and
scientists to solve the world's greatest engineering challenges,
announced new embedded systems hardware based on the open, flexible
LabVIEW reconfigurable I/O (RIO) architecture. This hardware
includes the high-performance CompactRIO Controller for integrators with
rugged, industrial applications,Controller for FlexRIO for designers with
high-performance embedded applications and Single-Board RIO
Controller for designers who require more flexibility in
their embedded applications. These controllers integrate the latest
embedded technologies from Intel and Xilinx to deliver unparalleled
performance and flexibility, empowering system designers and
machine builders to address the most demanding control and
monitoring challenges. The controllers are fully supported
by LabVIEW software,
the LabVIEW FPGA Module and NI Linux
Real-Time, now based on Security-Enhanced Linux, which enables
advanced security features for Industrial IoT applications.
"As
the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) continues to impact the
way the world connects, communicates and optimizes smart systems,
embedded engineers face growing and evolving networking,
performance and security demands and increased pressure to get to
market faster, all while reducing development costs,"
said Jamie Smith, director of embedded systems at NI. "NI's
LabVIEW RIO architecture delivers a complete platform so engineers
can quickly design, prototype and deploy embedded systems for
advanced monitoring and control applications in the IIoT."
To
meet the evolving requirements of the IIoT, NI's platform brings
together intelligent systems, connectivity and system-to-system
communications, coupled with analytical software tools designed to
deliver business insights and customer value.
"NI's
LabVIEW RIO architecture, with its real-time processors,
user-programmable FPGAs and modular I/O, gives us the performance
and flexibility to build complex control systems for our smart
agricultural machines," saidSteve Aposhian, president and chief engineer at FireFly
Equipment. "Programming all elements of the system with LabVIEW
speeds our development process, allowing us to deliver our
innovations to the market faster."
