NI Linux Technology
NI offers hardware and software products for use with a variety of Linux distributions and versions. The products span both desktop and embedded use cases and address the needs of those using Linux across academia and industry.
NI created the NI Linux Real-Time OS, a new Linux distribution with industrial-grade, real-time capabilities. Intended for embedded systems, it offers real-time performance with the approachability and usability of a desktop OS. The NI Linux Real-Time OS is fully supported by the LabVIEW Real-Time Module.
NI Linux Real-Time targets help you apply code from the Linux ecosystem; reuse in-house code; and develop, deploy, and debug C/C++ code using your IDE of choice.
NI real-time hardware and software work seamlessly to run applications reliably and deterministically with precise timing. NI real-time development tools provide all necessary real-time OS (RTOS) software, including a Linux option.
Airbus added intelligence to the tools and shop floor systems to help simplify the production process and improve production efficiency.
The LabVIEW Real-Time Module, LabVIEW FPGA Module, and NI Linux real-time targets can offer higher-performance timing, control, and signal processing.
For those more familiar with Linux and looking to take advantage of the benefits of Linux alongside a LabVIEW Real-Time application, the NI Linux Real-Time Community offers practical how-to documentation and a forum for questions specifically about this OS.
