Name: LabVIEW 3D Control Simulation using SolidWorks 3D Models
ID: m12977
Language: English (en)
Summary: Importing a SolidWorks VRML into LabVIEW gives engineers and students the ability to integrate the power of SolidWorks 3D computer aided design with LabVIEW simulation. It is extremely useful for test and simulation applications that require complex visualization of a 3D model. To combine 3D visualization with simulation, you can use a combination of LabVIEW, the Simulation Module and the 3D Picture Control Toolkit.
