National Instruments Corp. (NASDAQ:NATI) announced Tuesday that it launched its new RIO Control Module for its NI Educational Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation Suite (NI ELVIS), which adds leading-edge capabilities to the hands-on learning solution for power systems, machine controls and more.

“I can have students design and run lab experiments on the NI ELVIS RIO Control Module and have them troubleshoot sensors and actuators at the circuit level to use in those experiments with the NI ELVIS instrumentation,” said David McNair, professor at Georgia Institute of Technology.

“This helps students understand and appreciate the need for instrumentation in troubleshooting and embedded processors for design as well as the importance of using them together when developing projects and experiments,” McNair added.

NI shares were trading up 0.32% at $28.40 on Tuesday.
