Simulation Toolkit Demo at Championships in Atlanta 2007

Teams,

If you have received the NI-DAQ USB 6009 device, or are even the slightest bit curious in simulating a robot with the LabVIEW Simulation/Modeling Toolkit while testing code on your IFI RC, PLEASE check out the demo going on at the National Instruments Vendor Showcase booth.

They're going to be having a demo there showing off a very simple Hardware-in-the-loop demonstration using the Innovation FIRST control system. LabVIEW will be used to model the NI robot for solving the Rack-And-Roll challenge, will use the 3D Picture Control in LabVIEW to visualize the robot actions, will be running code on the IFI Robot Controller, and will be controlling sensor inputs on the IFI Robot Controller using the NI-DAQ USB 6009 device all at the same time. Here's a sample image of the output screen attached - imagine having THIS as a Dashboard!!!!!

I hope to see you all in Atlanta!
-Danny
