Data Acquisition Software

Visual DAQ Application Software

Data Acquisition (DAQ) is the process of measuring environmental conditions.

The DAQ process involves sampling of signals that represent environmental conditions, converting the resulting samples into numeric values, and data-processing those values by a computer. DAQ is basically analog to digital conversion (ADC) and data analysis.

1. Desired Qualities of a DAQ Application Software

User Experience & Setup

Ease of Use: Platform-based DAQ software should be equally useful for DAQ system developers (programming) and end users (configuration).
Configurability: The platform should handle logging, alerts, and control via configuration rather than complex programming.
Visual Monitoring: Should support maximum visibility (3D if viable) to your measurement system, even remotely over web.

Developer Features

Ease of Integration: Programming should be based on standard languages with a minimal learning curve.
Ease of Distribution: It should be easy to transfer configuration settings and create single-click setups for end users.
Extendibility: Developers should be able to alter functionality with custom components and interfaces.
Future Ready: Functionality of the platform should be customizable, at a later point of change in requirements.
Support: Expert support (and help manuals) should be available for the platform, for suggestions on implementations.
