Motion Assistant is a new development tool National Instruments that automatically generates LabView code and improves development productivity. This tool helps build applications that use motors and positioning devices and is for use in a variety of applications ranging from biotech laboratory research to optoelectronics manufacturing. With NI Motion Assistant, users can also quickly develop code recipes for Microsoft Visual Basic and Visual C++ using Measurement Studio, National Instruments' set of fully integrated measurement components.

Combined with either LabView or Measurement Studio, Motion Assistant helps engineers create motion applications ranging from simple single-axis motions to demanding multi-axis motions.

With the NI Motion Assistant point-and-click interface, engineers and scientists can quickly program and prototype motion systems to reduce development time.

This new development tool deploys prototypes into applications and easily adds special placeholders for integrated components such as vision or data acquisition.

NI Motion Assistant also works with NI motion controllers for open or closed-loop motion control and interactive creation of each co-ordinated point-to-point, circular, or contoured move in the sequence.
