- The rapid growth of electronic products adopting a voice-command user interface, driven by the increasing use of IoT devices and AI applications, has introduced new challenges to acoustic and functional product testing.
- NI’s audio and acoustic test solutions marketed by Farnell provide device manufacturers with modular and scalable tools to reduce product evaluation time.
The NI hardware and software audio test solutions now available from Farnell include:
– Audio Analyser AI AO (Hardware) – PXI Sound and Vibration Modules are designed specifically for applications like audio test and measurement, noise and vibration diagnostics, machine condition monitoring, automotive test, noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) analysis, and laboratory research. They provide software-configurable AC/DC coupling, antialiasing filters, and IEPE conditioning to ensure measurements with microphones, accelerometers, and other transducers.
– A PXIe-8822 PXI Controller can be used to create a compact or portable PC-based platform for industrial control, data acquisition and test and measurement applications. This PXI controller includes a 10/100/1000/2500 BASE T Gigabit Ethernet port, two Hi Speed USB ports, two USB 3.0 ports, as well as an integrated hard drive, serial port, and other peripheral I/Os.
– The PXIe-1071 4-slot PXI Chassis is ideal for minimizing the footprint of an installation. The PXIe-1071 accepts PXI Express modules or standard PXI hybrid-compatible modules in every peripheral slot.
– Audio Analyser AI AO (Software) – Test Workflow Pro is a software suite for engineers that provides the test and measurement tools required to perform every step of the test process, including the ability to connect to instruments, perform measurements and analyse data. The suite includes LabVIEW, TestStand, DIAdem, FlexLogger, G Web Development Software, SystemLink Cloud and InstrumentStudio.
– LabVIEW Sound and Vibration Toolkit – a software add-on that contains power spectrum, swept sine and octave analysis virtual instruments (VIs). It also makes audio and distortion measurements, frequency analysis, frequency response measurements and transient analysis. The toolkit features updated analysis solutions to comply with evolving IEC standards. Users can access more than 50 ready-to-run LabVIEW examples provided in the LabVIEW Sound and Vibration Toolkit.
