Atmel START vs. LabVIEW vs. Python vs. TimeMachine Comparison Chart

LabVIEW offers a graphical programming approach that helps you visualize every aspect of your application, including hardware configuration, measurement data, and debugging. This visualization makes it simple to integrate measurement hardware from any vendor, represent complex logic on the diagram, develop data analysis algorithms, and design custom engineering user interfaces. With LabVIEW and NI DAQ hardware, you can build a custom measurement solution to visualize and analyze real-world signals to make data-driven decisions. Using LabVIEW and NI or third-party hardware, you can automate the validation of your product to meet challenging time-to-market and performance requirements. Working with LabVIEW, you can create flexible test applications that control multiple instruments and design user interfaces to optimize your manufacturing test throughput and operational cost. You can build industrial equipment and smart machines faster with LabVIEW.

The TimeMachine debugging suite extends the range of Green Hills Software’s popular MULTI integrated development environment (IDE) by providing a window into the complex interactions in software that can result in bugs, performance problems, and testing nightmares. By presenting this information in easy-to-understand displays, TimeMachine enables developers to quickly navigate through trace data and produce better code in less time. With TimeMachine you can debug both forward and backward in time, making it easier to find even the hardest time. Make your software run faster than you thought possible by examining program execution history to find previously unknown bottlenecks. Accelerate debugging by stepping backward a single step at a time into functions you've already stepped over. Leverage gigabytes of execution history to verify that your program has been fully tested.
