Software - More than a programming - Whether testing cars at automotive companies or controlling production and quality at manufacturing plants, engineers and scientists need flexible, cost-effective solutions for test, measurement and automation

A virtual instrument system is a software-defined system, where software based on user requirements defines the functionality of generic measurement hardware. Using the virtual instrumentation concept, an engineer can use software running on a computer, combined with instrumentation hardware, to define a custom, built-to-order test and measurement solution. The vision of virtual instrumentation has revolutionised the way engineers and scientists work, delivering faster development time, lower costs and greater flexibility
