Learn LabView: Programming LabView - Shift Register - 3 views

  • As you move forward with LabView programming, you will see that most design patterns are impossible without the shift register. Anytime you are trying to keep track of something in a loop, you will need to use one.
  • The shift register is a key element of LabView programming. It allows looping structures, such as the For and While loop, to carry over values from one iteration into the next. This can be extremely powerful in allowing the developer to build up arrays of information, or retain state information about a program running in a loop.

Passing Data Between Loop Iterations in NI LabVIEW - National Instruments - 2 views

  •  
    When programming with loops, you often must access data from previous iterations of the loop in LabVIEW. For example, if you are acquiring one piece of data in each iteration of a loop and must average every five pieces of data, you must retain the data from previous iterations of the loop.

datalogging and suchh. - 5 views

  • The basic idea of datalogging is to run an experiment, but have a computer do the tedious data recording for you. For instance, if you wanted to know how the temperature changes during the course of an entire day, you

NXT Basic-1: NXT Basic - Ultrasonic Sensor - 1 views

  • The Ultrasonic Sensor uses the same scientific principle as bats: it measures distance by calculating the time it takes for a sound wave to hit an object and return – just like an echo

  •  
    many sample codes for different reasons
  •  
    they are good codes because we can use them to help the robot carry out specific functions. also they are much simpler than the long codes that we have to make so in the long run these codes will make it easier and it will save us time

Long-Exposure Shot of a Roomba's Path Shows Beautifully Organized Chaos - 3 views

      shows that the roomba isnt as smart as people think it is, but more uses its random feature
  • while cleaning up. It's beautiful and surprising. I always assumed it worked with using some sort of grid, but that clearly isn't the case at all

wall following - 4 views

  •  
    this shows the wall following in action
  •  
    this is a good design for our robot because it has the sensor on the side for wall following and it has a touch sensor on the front which tells it to turn

      interesting how it uses the wall following and the spiral, nice demonstration
  •  
    this demonstrates how although it does the cleaning randomly it almost hits every spot eventually

    this looks very useful and easy to add to what we allready have
  •  
    there are touch sensors on the front which are attached to angled levers which help the robot detect objects from different angles
