A Solution for Studying the D.C. Motor Control Using NI MyRIO-1900

Today, in industry, electrical motor is a very important element for mobile robots and autonomous systems. The virtual instrumentation and embedded myRIO devices are very useful tools for didactic purpose and understanding the working principles of the electrical motors control. In this paper, the authors propose a solution for DC motor speed controlling and monitoring. For this, an application was created in the LabVIEW programming graphical environment which is running on NI MyRIO-1900 configurable equipment. This application highlights that the embedded device can be easily integrated into a teaching lab.
