What a great day! Keynote this morning was very good. CVI information was great! (see end of the blog) NI Rolled out LabVIEW 8.6 with cool new features that even I may use! The auto complete for LabVIEW VI's is nice and keeps you from mousing through the pallets. Of course you have to know the VIs name so those of us who know "Modulo" rather that "Quotient & Remainder" or with DAQmx where some name differences start around the 30th character may still have some trouble.
I went to a LabVIEW FPGA seminar and it's continuing to evolve and getting more and more powerful.
I went to a seminar on Intelligent control because AI is my hobby. It sounds as if LabVIEW may have some Intelligent control vi's coming out. More details to come.
Joel [Garner] and Travis [I-dont-know-his-last-name] put together a get together talking about new FPGA stuff. It's some good information.
But the highlight of my day was CVI. There was a lot of good CVI information between the CVI round table discussions at lunch, the using multi-core seminar, and the CVI Users group. Wendy [Logan] and Luis [Gomes] did a good job of talking about the future of CVI. They emphasized CVI will be around for a long time to come. But then again, most of us have heard that over and over. Plus they have some good, forward thinking plans for CVI. The only down side was the CVI demo, where they were destroying a CD, was flinging shrapnel and so they wouldn't run it live.
Also, you (yes you!) can sign up to get a beta copy of CVI 9.0 by going to ni.com/beta. Wendy only mentioned it at every slide and two or three on times on some slides.
CVI...Learn it...Love it...Live it!
OK, I'm tired and getting a bit little loopy.
