NI and Denso collaborate on robotic-arm design
National Instruments
NI Labview
National Instruments has announced it will integrate its measurement and vision technology with Denso robotic arms.
The collaboration is hoped to increase productivity and performance in automated test, research and flexible manufacturing applications.
A Labview library of graphical functions integrates all aspects of a robotics system within a single NI Labview application, without the need for complex robotics programming expertise.
The Imaginglab Robotics Library for Denso communicates directly with Denso controllers to command and control Denso robotic arms through Labview software.
The library is a collection of graphical functions with the ability to use a single software environment to control and integrate every aspect of a machine, ranging from part handling and robot control to advanced measurements and machine vision.
It works with Labview real-time systems, allowing engineers and scientists to build real-time applications.
The library also works with NI Smart Cameras for integrated vision-guided robotics and NI data-acquisition hardware for the measurement of simple and sophisticated applications.
