How to create a new interface type in measurement & automation explorer?

In MAX, under Devices and Interfaces, Create New... there is a list of several devices, some NI and others generic.  If I were interested in creating a new interface type to a hardware driver I've created, with custom configuration screens, where might I start to look?  There would need to be some kind of reference that would also appear in LabVIEW, like a DAQmx task.  My guess is that this is mostly proprietary at this point, but I would like to gather as much information on this as possible.

It should be 'Most NI and a few generic'. The only non-NI devices would be VISA resources. I have never seen NI open up MAX to third party cards. I have never seen anything published about this either.

 

If you use VISA to communicate to a PCI/PXI card, then it would show up as a VISA resource but there still iis no mechanism for a custom configuration utility
