Product Decription

The LabVIEW Physical Computing Kit includes the 32-bit version of LabVIEW Home and is

compatible with Windows 10/8.1/8/7/Vista/XP (32-bit and 64-bit). Not compatible with OS X.

LabVIEW is a graphical programming platform used for data acquisition & analysis, instrument

control, prototyping and more. LabVIEW Home Bundle has made this powerful software

affordable for makers and students. But what if you want to connect your LabVIEW projects to

the physical world?

That's why we've created the Physical Computing Kits. This version of the kit includes the

popular BeagleBone Black Rev. C platform, combined with LabVIEW Home Bundle, it provides an

inexpensive yet versatile way to deploy LabVIEW to an unconnected target and interact with the

physical world!

What's in the kit?

This version of the Physical Computing Kit comes with:

BeagleBone Black Rev.C

USB A to Mini-B cable

- included inside of the BeagleBone Black box

LabVIEW Home Bundle

The BeagleBone Black is a low-cost, community-supported development platform

that is perfect for physical computing applications. It has extensive I/O possibilities

including PWM, on-chip Ethernet, micro HDMI and USB. The Rev. C model is a vast

improvement over the previous BeagleBone, providing quick boot times and

double the storage, making it the perfect choice for anyone wanting to migrate up

from the chipKIT WF32 or Arduino projects.

Take your project beyond your computer!

With the powerful ARM Cortex-A8 processor on board the

BeagleBone Black, you are able to run Debian Linux, which turns

your BeagleBone Black into a mini-computer. Having a computer at

your disposal allows users to deploy LabVIEW, using LINX 3.0. Unlike

microcontroller targets, which require a PC connection, once

programmed, the BeagleBone Black can be disconnected and will

remain running.

Applications that would use the BeagleBone Black include:

Robitics, remote sensor units, running large image processing walls

(like our LED Display), and most projects that would require both a

Raspberry Pi + a microcontroller. The BeagleBone Black is the best of

both worlds!

The BeagleBone Black is a powerful credit-card sized board that has a

fast growing community and extensive capabilities!

You'll also be able to quickly create your own graphical user interfaces. Does your project need

switches, buttons, dials, numeric displays, or more? You'll be able to choose from hundreds of

controls, graphs, and 3D visualization tools, then simply drag-and-drop them into place.

In LabVIEW, you can design your project's block diagram & graphical interface, all at once.

Now, imagine you want to expand your design. For instance, maybe you want to add a high /

low temperature range or a digital temperature display. On a breadboard, it would mean adding

parts, rewiring, testing, etc. In LabVIEW, experimentation like this is much, much more efficient.

Need help getting started?

You'll find a growing collection of tutorials and examples at LabVIEW MakerHub, including:

A tutorial series for users new to LabVIEW and its interface

A tutorial series specifically for the BeagleBone Black.

These tutorials can walk you through an introduction to the LabVIEW interface, programming

examples, setting up your BeagleBone Black for deployment, connecting to I/O, and
