NI Releases iOS And Android Mobile Apps For NI Hardware And LabVIEW

National Instruments has announced NI LabVIEW software- and NI hardware-compatible mobile apps for iPhone, iPad and Android devices, helping engineers integrate the latest mobile technology into their applications. By combining the portability, ease of use, faster start-up time and longer battery longevity of mobile devices with the power of LabVIEW, engineers can productively access measurement data from data acquisition and embedded monitoring systems.

“Smartphones and tablets are game-changers for the test and measurement industry,” said Ray Almgren, NI Vice President, Product Marketing Core Platforms. “These new apps combine the portability of mobile devices with the power of LabVIEW, helping engineers increase their productivity and meet the latest application challenges.”

The product enables remotely view of PC or embedded measurements from LabVIEW on iPad, iPhone and Android mobile devices using a combination of charts, gauges, text indicators and LEDs. It also helps visualise distributed measurements from LabVIEW programmable devices, such as NI CompactRIO. It makes it possible to connect to networked-published shared variables or Web service data without Web or app programming.
