NI's LabVIEW Takes On Blackfin

The Embedded Module addition to LabVIEW extends graphical dataflow to support Blackfin Processors from Analog Devices. Via a single graphical platform, the module provides an out-of-the-box solution for users without embedded-programming experience. It includes more than 140 Blackfin-specific math, analysis, and signal processing functions; integrated I/O for audio and video DACs, ADCs, and CODECs; on-chip debugging; and Ethernet connectivity. Also on board is the VisualDSP++ C development and debugging environment for low-level access and real-time interactive debugging and deployment directly to Blackfin devices. Example applications are included. Price starts at $6,995. NATIONAL INSTRUMENTS, Austin, TX. (800) 258-7022.
