Motion, Photogate, and Rotary

These are examples that demonstrate how to create LabVIEW programs for the Vernier Motion Detector, Photogate, and Rotary Motion Detector. These sensors can be used to create some very interesting programs that track location, count events, or even trap mice. Use these programs as-is, or build off of them to create custom programs.

Keep in mind that programming the LabPro to collect data from the Photogate and Rotary Motion Detector is a bit trickier than the other LabPro programs. If you are just beginning with LabVIEW you may want to study some of the other programs first.
