LabVIEW development and Automation

Responsibilities:

• Contract work to automate Laser pulsing, automation and collection of data from a high-end medical laser in conjunction with a power meter and a spectrometer. Developed software packages to pulse the laser and collect data and calculate peak value, centroid, FWHM and FW/1e2.
• Software developed for this purpose would handle all aspects of communication with laser diode, RS232 communication with power supply and power meter and a USB communication with an Ocean Optic’s HR4000 spectrometer. This software would produce automated reports and spectrometer charts and graphsAutomation of data collection and calculations using an OVA and a TODC.
• Developed remote (Using TCP/IP) communication with an OVA and TODC to arrive at desired channel centers and calculations of pass band ripple, 1-dB Bandwidth, Dispersion, Group delay Ripple, Polarized Mode ripple, Polarized dependent Dispersion and Polarized dependent loss.
• Developed series of LabVIEW modules and a centralize container to communicate and automate all necessary hardware, calculations, automated reports; including original data collections and manipulated and graphed outputs.
