It is sometimes difficult to distinguish the difference between work and play at National Instruments especially when it involves Designing, Prototyping, and Deploying innovative products that improve everyday life. Last month, I worked with our marketing department here in Italy to decide on a project for my AEs to collaborate on. With BIAS fast approaching (Italy’s largest Automation and Instrumentation tradeshow) at the end of the month we decided to leverage our Programmable Automation Controllers (PAC) to deliver a complete industrial control and automation solution.
I created a video to show the initial design and layout through construction and final completion that resulted in a huge success at the tradeshow. Filippo, the team leader on this project, did a phenomenal job architecting the software and guaranteeing completion in less than 1 month. The other AEs also did a great job working on specific product lines for interconnectivity. This video only shows a small glimpse of the great efforts put forth by the team…
You might notice that we tried to emulate the hit television series ‘Pimp My Ride’ with a special focus on PAC!
