LabVIEW 2014 with NI Linux Real-Time support lets engineers and scientists use a single, familiar development environment to continue developing their system while taking immediate advantage of increased CompactRIO hardware performance.
The controller integrates an Intel Atom processor to close the loop faster, tackle more tasks with the same controller, and process data with more precision, accuracy and speed with this dual-core processor along with the Kintex-7 FPGA to process more channels and implement more complex filtering and control algorithms. NI Linux Real-Time gives access to an extensive community of applications and IP with a robust Linux -based real-time OS.
Embedded UI implements a local HMI device and use the control system to handle HMI tasks, cutting component costs as well as development and integration time. USB3 or GigE Vision cameras can be added using NI Linux Real-Time, integrate vision acquisition directly into an application, and use new Vision IP to turn the FPGA into a high-performance vision coprocessor.
