When National Instruments (NI) released LabVIEW in 1986 it only targeted the Macintosh, with ports to other platforms coming later on in the 1990s. Now, NI has announced that with …read more Continue reading LabVIEW Abandons Mac After Four Decades
When you’re right, you’re right. Back in January, we predicted that exoskeletons were about to break out as a mainstream product, and gave several examples of prototypes poised to become products. So it was with interest that we read about Sarcos Robotics and their new Guardian XO, a cyber suit …read more
LabVIEW, the widely used system design and development platform developed by National Instruments, sports a memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to code execution. LabVIEW is commonly used for building data acquisition, instrument control, and industrial automation systems on a variety of operating systems: Windows, macOS, Linux and Unix. The vulnerability (CVE-2017-2779) The vulnerability was discovered by Cory Duplantis of Cisco Talos earlier this year, and reported to the company. It can be triggered by … More → Continue reading Cisco unveils LabVIEW code execution flaw that won’t be patched
If you’re an engineer and use LabVIEW software to design machines or industrial equipments, you should be very suspicious while opening any VI (virtual instrument) file.
LabVIEW, developed by American company National Instruments, is a visual programm… Continue reading Using LabVIEW? Unpatched Flaw Allows Hackers to Hijack Your Computer
One of the companion technologies in the developing field of augmented reality is gesture tracking. It’s one thing to put someone in a virtual or augmented world, but without a natural way to interact inside of it the user experience is likely to be limited. Of course, gestures can be used to control things in the real world as well, and to that end [Sarah]’s latest project uses this interesting human interface device to control a drone.
The project uses a Leap Motion sensor to detect and gather the gesture data, and feeds all of that information into LabVIEW. A …read more
