Summary of Labview and Arduino: 3Dmicro Toolkit Arduino Expansion (beta)
3D SuperVision Systems, an Italian university spin-off, released the 3Dmicro toolkit. This software add-on enables rapid firmware prototyping for 32-bit PIC microcontrollers and Arduino boards using NI LabVIEW's graphical interface. The new Arduino version allows direct access to I/O, ADCs, timers, PWM, and serial communication. Academic beta testers can sign up via a provided application form to utilize these capabilities within the LabVIEW environment.
Parts used in the 3Dmicro Toolkit:
- NI Labview
- 32-bit PIC microcontrollers
- Arduino boards
- I/O interfaces
- ADCs (Analog-to-Digital Converters)
- Timers
- PWM (Pulse Width Modulation)
- Serial communication modules
3D SuperVision Systems is an italian spin-off from “Università Politecnica delle Marche“, whose mission is to design and to develop new solutions for embedded applications.
Few days ago, they published the latest release of 3Dmicro toolkit, a software add-on to NI Labview usable for firmware rapid prototyping on 32-bit PIC microcontrollers, by using Labview’s easy-to-use graphical programming language; along with this, an Arduino-oriented version has been released as well for academic beta testers, which allows users to make use of Arduino’s I/O, ADCs, timers, PWM and serial communication directly from Labview’s interface.
