Instrumentation Lab
The Instrumentation Laboratory is an environment that helps students become familiar with machine instrumentation and measurement techniques. It features 20 computers equipped with data acquisition modules to which several types of sensors and actuators can be connected. The acquired data can be stored and/or analyzed using the LabVIEW software. Machine control decisions could be made and executed using several types of motors. This system also allows the students to develop their own virtual instruments.
