 ...your education can be interesting and even fun. If you look a little farther down the path, you WILL "use this crap", and "this crap" can even be cool if you know how to use it. - Chris Hibner [more] |

Re: NI Week Athena Announcement and Q&A Panel
NI said that Java was an arcane language, and was part of the problem with current education is that students learn it, yet they are going to be announcing a controller that will probably work with Java.
There's a feature to zoom in the NXT programming language, but STILL NO ZOOM IN LABVIEW Last edited by magnets : 08-08-2013 at 09:48.

Re: NI Week Athena Announcement and Q&A Panel
Most important questions for me:
Cost? For those of us that run 2 robots how much is this going to set us back? Availability of both hardware and software? I don't like getting a new system on kickoff, and shipping it to me early December doesn't help much either. Yes, I know it's over a year and a half out but it's never too early to make a plan of attack for utilizing new technology.
