Low Cost Data Acquisition and Control using Arduino Prototyping Platform and LabVIEW

Naveenkumar R | Prasad Krishna

Abstract: For the shortcomings of poor flexibility and versatility of traditional industrial data acquisition monitoring system, the paper design a new type of industrial data acquisition monitoring system based on single chip computer (SCM) of ATmega32 (Arduino prototyping platform) and the LabVIEW software platform for virtual experiments. The system collects long distance data of industrial field to the PC for data acquisition and control through the USB communication, and users can set the parameters of collecting data for setting and adjustment, at the same time can be conveniently to being sampled data for storage and playback. The experiments show that the data collection and monitoring system has some features of being low cost, easy to use and a wide range of application, and has a very important application for collection and monitoring data in industrial areas and laboratory.
