LabVIEW™ Overview
LabVIEW is a graphical programming language used all over the world in industry and academia. In education, it’s
considered a tool of discovery. LabVIEW gives students complete visibility into engineering systems, enabling them to
learn and design systems of their own faster. For the same reason, it’s considered a tool to accelerate the productivity
of engineers and scientists. LabVIEW is a standard for test, instrumentation, and control applications in just about every
industry. Though you may not realize it, if you can turn it on, drive it, fly it, changes are, NI and LabVIEW made it happen.
LabVIEW uses a dataflow model instead of sequential lines of text. This empowers coders to write functional code using
a visual layout that resembles your thought process. When you code, you use function blocks and connect them using
wire that transfer data from function to function. As you code, you can create a user interface on the Front Panel. This
allows you to always have visibility of your data as you design your system, and also to allow end users to interact with the
program. To learn more about LabVIEW and how it’s used in industry, visit ni.com/LabVIEW.
