Innovative Low Cost Laboratory Automation Environment and LabVIEW Reformation Application Case Study
Abstract
In recognition of the catalytic role of instruments, we report on an original, low-cost, robust, LabVIEW-based automation development environment configuration and application to reformation of a legacy laser atomic spectroscopy system. Open source, version and configuration control, full back-up, and remote/distributed capability characteristics make the new environment 500% better. System reformation using reusable type definitions, functional encapsulation, increased modularization, and polymorphism boosted performance 983%. Both the environment configuration and reformation strategies are transferrable to most endeavors.
