National Technical Systems Announces DynamicDAQ™ to Be Featured at NI Week

CALABASAS, Calif. and ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., July 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- National Technical Systems, Inc. (NTS), a systems engineering company and the leading independent provider of environmental simulation and electromagnetic compatibility testing, inspection and certification solutions in the United States, announced today that its new, durable and fully portable data acquisition product, DynamicDAQ™, will be featured in a presentation at the 20^th annual NI Week 2014 at the Austin Convention Center in Austin, TX on Thursday, August 7^th at 10:30 AM. NI Week conducted by National Instruments Corporation (NI), celebrates innovation in a variety of industries by presenting the latest technology created to accelerate productivity for software-defined systems in test, measurement and control.

NTS will be located at Booth 332 at NI Week, which runs from Aug. 4-7.

During his presentation, Brian G. Shea, NTS certified LabVIEW Architect, will discuss the features of DynamicDAQ, a scalable software product that allows aerospace and other customers to collect and portray data in real time and store it for display, analysis and certification purposes. Dynamic DAQ, which was conceived and developed by a NI-trained team of NTS system integrators, is based on a NI cDAQ hardware platform and offers aerospace-related customers, test laboratories and researchers a cost-effective measurement tool, Shea noted.

"DynamicDAQ, which can measure hundreds of temperature readings and display them in real time, is the result of the work of a team of engineers from our NTS Center of Excellence for Engineering Services based at our Albuquerque facility," Shea said. "I look forward to presenting the exciting features of DynamicDAQ and the inner workings of our data acquisition software that is optimized for aerospace ATE or automated test equipment."

The NTS Center of Excellence for Engineering Services, which employs mechanical engineers, systems engineers and electrical engineers, is proficient in the design, analysis and manufacturing for aerospace clients and others.
