Desktop Laboratories (“DTL”) provides systems integration for industry and research. DTL creates hardware and software primarily for testing products. DTL’s primary tool is National Instrument’s LabVIEW® Virtual Instrument package. DTL’s own projects include The Virtual Scientisttm and The Science ToolBoxttm, which is a set of software virtual instrument libraries and hardware respectively for basic science and education.
Virtual Instruments are software instruments as opposed to stand alone instruments. The pedagogical basis of LabVIEW’s graphical environment is the Scientific Method; hypothesis leads to tests which lead to conclusions and then a return to the hypothesis.
Desktop Laboratories services include systems engineering and product development.
