3. Well-made: NI gives you insight into industry trends

NIWEEK 2017 presents industry-focused summits in various fields: covering new developments in mmWave, massive MIMO and wireless networks, bringing together the world's leading industry leaders in 5G wireless technology and applications to discuss 5G strategies; accelerating the in-depth implementation of intelligent and networked autonomous driving; digitizing energy, profoundly affecting the power usage of even pocket electronic devices; helping semiconductor test customers to break free from the testing dilemma of ATE; and promoting every intelligent reform of Industry 4.0.

4. High energy throughout: NI launches a series of new products for the first time in the world

At NIWEEK 2017, a series of blockbuster new products that have caused a sensation in the industry will be launched globally for the first time, such as the next generation of LabVIEW that everyone is eagerly awaiting.

On the first day of the annual grand opening, NIWEEK 2017 was full of sincerity, the Academic Forum was full of applause, and the global engineering academy party refreshed your understanding of university laboratories~ The editor went into 3 major cases, from high school students to university professors, from basic education to university education, from China to the world, to take you to appreciate NI's school education philosophy - to promote further integration of industry, academia and research.

NI launches configuration-based software to help colleges and universities take root in education

At the NI Academic Forum, Calyx Liu, a Chinese female high school student from Westlake High School, used her own case to illustrate NI's academic education philosophy: NI modularizes mature underlying codes, develops configuration-based software, and accelerates students' exploration and innovation through systematic design.

At NIWEEK 2017, NI launched DAQExpress, a fully configuration-based software that helps students to directly complete the development and design of primary projects without having to focus on the development of underlying codes. It can even be used by high school students. Combined with myDAQ hardware solutions, you may be able to complete robot design like Calyx Liu and explode your own universe as soon as possible!

NI leads the trend of pocket labs in global engineering education, Tsinghua professor shares his experience

In the Academic Forum speech session, Professor Zhao Mingguo from the Department of Automation at Tsinghua University attracted much attention and gave a brilliant demonstration on how to establish an Engineering pipeline for electromechanical teaching based on the NI platform.

Professor Zhao has implemented a complete teaching design for the electromechanical discipline based on NI myRIO, myDAQ, cRIO and other platforms, from the introduction to engineering to professional studies in the sophomore year, to system practice in the junior year, and finally to more complex system design in the senior year.

According to NI engineers, the platform that Professor Zhao Mingguo used was the pocket laboratory that NI launched two years ago. Nowadays, engineering education emphasizes practice, and traditional domestic laboratories can no longer support the rapidly growing demand for practical teaching, so pocket laboratories came into being.

NI Pocket Lab includes three products:

lmyDAQ for laboratory data acquisition;

myRIO for embedded design;

lAnalog Discovery 2 for circuit design;

The case of the mechanical and electrical engineering discipline in Tsinghua University also deeply illustrates that NI is able to achieve design from concept to subsystem to complex system, link teaching and scientific research, and further promote the integration of industry, academia and research.

In fact, the integration of industry, academia and research has always been difficult, and the industry has not had a clear implementation path. NI, with the concept of accelerating innovation through systematic design, hopes to achieve the integration of industry, academia and research with the help of systematic teaching methods. It intends to study the core concepts, advance from theory to practice to complete the realization of Subsystems, and finally to Engineering systems design and research, to perfectly connect teaching and industry.

NI's pocket labs have been leading the global university education since the year before last. They have been recognized by more and more universities and have a larger number of "followers" in the industry. However, competition has always been the source of innovation. Not only pocket labs, the remote laboratories promoted by the Open University of the United Kingdom are another key path for NI to promote the integration of industry, academia and research.

The Open University is known as the originator of remote laboratories, and the NI platform is the cornerstone

The remote laboratory based on the NI platform demonstrated by the Open University of the United Kingdom is another solution to practical teaching. Through the network, students can connect with the controlled experimental subjects anytime and anywhere.

With more than 30 years of experience in distance education, as a leader in distance education, the Open University chose the NI platform to start engineering distance education. Through a remote laboratory consisting of more than 30 sets of NI equipment and a complete and powerful curriculum system behind the laboratory, the Open University perfectly achieved up to 4,752 one-on-one experimental teaching on the same day.

In conjunction with the realization of distance education, NIWEEK has also launched Multisim Live, a model of distance teaching in the industry. It can be logged in through mobile terminals, apps, and Windows terminals. It is a circuit simulation software that is completely based on the browser, helping students to perform circuit simulation anytime and anywhere. At the same time, it has online sharing, forming an interactive community, and combined with the powerful online resource library TeachingResources Portal, it allows college students to truly feel the intimacy of "more friends and more roads on the road of scientific research" from NI~

The case of the Open University remote laboratory is another case parallel to the pocket laboratory, and it is also another implementation of NI's educational philosophy. At present, NI has started cooperation with domestic universities to accelerate the implementation of remote laboratories in domestic universities. By then, the days when students can do experiments in their dormitories using their mobile phones or iPads will not be far away.

There are too many new products launched for academic education, such as Quanser Qube 2.0, Quanser Aero, not to mention NI IoT Education Beta that brings IoT into the classroom.

There are too many typical cases based on college education, such as the University of Manchester, Lodz University of Technology, not to mention Virginia, which improved its electrical engineering school's national ranking by 16 places and increased its learning satisfaction from 65% to 91% through NI Virtualbench and Multisim.
