This thesis deals with certain properties of real time operating systems (RTOS) Ardence PharLap ETS, WindRiver VxWorks and LabVIEW RT module. Three methodologies of RTOS quality comparison are proposed, two of which are practically tested with described experiments on CompactRIO hardware from NI. Furthermore, there is explained need for RTOS usage and experimental comparison of jitter error influence on total harmonic distortion THD defined by two definitions.

The theme of this thesis is presentation of the CompactRIO platform by National Instruments with its range of hardware and the possibility of using this platform for the frequency measurement of analog signals. The result of this thesis is software equipment for this device focusing on the frequency measurement of analog signals and experimental verification of posibilities of a specific configuration of this platform in the range of measurable frequencies.

This diploma thesis concernes with the realization of a control system for hydraulic manipulator. It is devided into three main parts. The first part concerns sensors and actuators, which are used at the hydraulic manipulator. The second part describes design, production and programming of electronic control sub-system. The last part describes high level control software, created in the LabVIEW environment.

When designing a Mechatronics system should be the management implemented into the mechanism of technological products. It is therefore necessary to create a connection tool for the management design and tools for the CAD of the management mechanism. The company responded that the need for the issuance of National Instruments toolkit to connect the NI LabVIEW with SolidWorks CAD tool. This link allows the NI LabVIEW environment to control the simulation on the virtual model in the SolidWorks/COSMOS Motion and back to obtain the results of dynamic analysis. The aim of this work is to evaluate the possibility of linking development tools and CAD system and evaluate its use in the design of Mechatronics system.

The diploma thesis deals with control of robotic manipulators and their range of applicability. The main objective is to create kinetic model of manipulator in the SolidWorks environment and to set up the identification and control program in the LabVIEW software. It evaluates the applicability of SoftMotion Module tool, which was developed especially for the model control in Motion analysis. The proposed method of control is used on the kinetic model, which employs control commands for the movement of manipulator MiniSwing

This thesis deals with the creation of a program for collecting data from three optional systems of temperature sensors (RS232, USB and PCI DAQ), torque shaft and a power analyzer (GPIB) in LabVIEW. The implementation of the results to Excel by the automatic periodical writing of the gained data (LabVIEW › Excel).

Presented thesis deals with pneumatic actuators, PLC control systems and physical properties of compressed air. The thesis introducing short view of pneumatic components of FESTO manipulator and LabVIEW programming. Experimental results are presented on three axis FESTO manipultor programmed by NI LabVIEW.

At the School of Technology and Health (STH) on KTH, a micro- CT is beeing build. The micro-CT-system need to be aligned in order to function correctly. The purpose of this bachelor thesis was to create an application that, from the micro-CT images, could calculate all the necessary parameters to make the alignment pos- sible. During the projekt, LabView-code for aligning a micro-CT system has been modified to being compatible with the micro-CT at the School of Technology and Health (STH) on KTH. The code has also partly been translated into the open-source and platform independent programming language Java. Due to delays in building the micro-CT at STH, neither the LabView- or Javacode could be validated with it. However, successful attempts have been made with images from another micro-CT and on simulated images of a phantom in a micro-CT.
