MultiSensors Toolbox
Multi-Sensors� is a Matlab-based toolbox that allows the processing of data coming from a system of different sensors. It provides a very easy way to handle data: the user only has to click on one or many data curves, perform different types of processing and immediately see the result. Multi-Sensors� can also be used as a matrix viewer, image processing tool and in other tasks. On the other hand, since sensors data can be processed at the same time, relations between data issued from different sensors can be exploited, thus helping to reveal the physical phenomena of interest. This is the principal advantage of this toolbox.

Model 990 Data Acquisition/Waveform Generator - High speed, deep memory data acquisition and waveform generation and analysis
The Model 990 is an extremely versatile tool that provides the link between simulation and test. The Model 990 controller combines the power of MATLAB and the power of the Model 990 hardware. The controller provides a simple command to control the unit from the MATLAB environment. The controller includes the acquisition or "snapshot" of data into Model 990 memory, which can be written into a MATLAB vector. Once the snapshot data is brought into the MATLAB environment, the user can take advantage of MATLAB's processing and graphical capabilities. MATLAB generated data can also be loaded into the "playback" memory of Model 990. The data can then, in real time, be played out on digital or analog output port serving as a highly flexible, custom test signal generator.
