To increase the impact of physics experiments and student labs using LabVIEW and virtual instrumentation, the University of Bern uses Hopf pendulum and Doppler experiments in the hands-on examples. In the Hopf experiment, students transition between the inherent steady states of a mechanical system driven by chaotic properties. In the Doppler experiment, they measure and analyze the acquired signals of rotating sound sources. Learn how students use LabVIEW and NI DAQ hardware to drive and analyze measurements.
