AUSTIN, TX, September 4, 2007
National Instruments (Nasdaq: NATI) has announced open registration for the 2007 NI Technical Symposium, the company’s free annual series of virtual instrumentation conferences that take place in 26 U.S. cities as well as Mexico and Canada. From September through December 2007, engineers and scientists from across North America can attend the conferences for new product demonstrations, hands-on tutorials, technology presentations, and exhibits on the latest solutions in design, control, and test. During the NI Technical Symposium, attendees can exchange ideas on approaches to technical challenges, further their expertise in NI tools, and evaluate upcoming technology trends in the areas of design, test, and control.
This year’s symposium attendees will have the opportunity to learn about NI LabVIEW 8.5, the latest version of the graphical system design platform for test, control, and embedded system development. LabVIEW 8.5 features multicore development tools, statechart programming, and improvements to textual math and connectivity to third-party industrial devices among others. Attendees also can learn how NI hardware innovations for the PXI Express and CompactRIO platforms offer greater flexibility, faster system development, and increased system performance. Additionally, attendees can hear from experts on the hottest industry topics during keynote presentations and technical sessions.
The NI Technical Symposium builds on the success of NIWeek, the worldwide virtual instrumentation conference and exhibition held annually in Austin, TX, where the company is headquartered. NIWeek 2007 concluded in August with attendance of more than 2,000 people, who participated in hands-on training, interactive technical sessions, summits, exhibitions, and workshops.
