Abstract: This study deal with interfacing myRIO with various sensors and control using LabVIEW. Different types of sensors are considered to control various quantities. The sensors are seven segment display, discrete LED, push button, DIP switches, relay, potentiometer, thermistor, photocell, microphone, speaker, motor, rotary encoder, photo interrupter, Hall effect sensor, Piezo electric sensor, Servo, IR range finder, Sonic range finder, accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, ambient light sensor. The sensors are essential components in measurement and control. LabVIEW provides an interface for visualizing the signal, measurement and control of various physical parameters. Such are deals with the control of stepper motor using NI myRIO because it is less complex to research with LabVIEW programming which is very simple. The pulse required to run the stepper motor is generated using NI myRIO and interfaced with LabVIEW with the help of code generated in the system. The supply voltage is applied to the motor through a voltage driver circuit and the motor speed is controlled by varying the time delay in the LabVIEW program simulation specifications. This mechanical motion obtained using the stepper motor can be used in various industrial and real time applications as well.
