Last Wednesday we had the award ceremony for the winner of Student LabVIEW Coding Challenge 2015, SLVCC15. The task for this year challenge was to develop a LabVIEW application, a Whistle Star game. Using the computers build-in sound card, the player whistling was to be sampled and compared to the opening tunes of \u201cTwinkle twinkle little star\u201d. The developer could decide themselves of how the scoring to the results were to be made.<\/p>\n

The winner, William Tidelund, had chosen a simple state-machine design pattern in LabVIEW as the base for his application. The jury of experienced LabVIEW specialists thought this was a good starting point for this kind of application. One comment was \u201cIf this application was to be developed further it would probably be wise to switch to a multi-loop design. The use of sub-vi:s facilitates this, but more organised code would make it even easier.\u201c<\/p>\n

William had understood the task well. His application was very good from a functionality point of view, but it lacked some work from a user experience point of view. The jury thought this is however made with the right priority, getting the system to work before making it pretty.\u00a0All the specified requirements were fulfilled and William had included some extra functionality adding to the usability. The jury concludes \u201cIt is obvious that you have understood the design you are working with and make full use of it, which is the key to making the application work so well. Congratulations on a job well done!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n William himself says that it took him about 15 hours to complete the task. The result was a well working application. William enjoyed visiting DVel\u2019s office for the award ceremony and joined us at one of our regular competence meetings. He also got a brief presentation of DVel and he was surprised that there is so much to work with if specializing in the area of test and measurements. He thinks this would be an interesting field to work within once he has finished his studies.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Once again, congratulations to a work well done!<\/p>\n By Karin Hellqvist<\/p>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” custom_padding=”27px||2px|||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.dvel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Riki-1-e1622007707187.jpg” title_text=”Riki” align=”right” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”center” align_last_edited=”on|tablet” _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” width=”auto” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”50%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” max_width=”none” min_height=”auto” height=”auto” max_height=”none” custom_margin=”0px|||0px|false|false” custom_padding=”0px|||0px|false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”|0px||0px|false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_line_height=”0.8em” header_6_text_align=”center” text_orientation=”center” width=”100%” custom_margin=”1px||16px|||” custom_padding=”0px|0px|8px|0px|false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_line_height=”0.8em” header_6_text_align=”center” text_orientation=”center” width=”100%” custom_margin=”1px||16px|||” custom_padding=”0px|0px|8px|0px|false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_line_height=”0.8em” width=”100%” custom_margin=”1px||16px|||” custom_padding=”0px|0px|8px|0px|false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ header_6_text_align_tablet=”center” header_6_text_align_phone=”center” header_6_text_align_last_edited=”on|phone” text_orientation_tablet=”center” text_orientation_phone=”center” text_orientation_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n CEO<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjU2OCJ9fQ==@” button_text=”CONTACT RIKI” button_alignment=”left” button_alignment_tablet=”center” button_alignment_phone=”center” button_alignment_last_edited=”on|phone” admin_label=”Knapp: CONTACT US” _builder_version=”4.9.3″ _dynamic_attributes=”button_url” _module_preset=”fa819396-4e80-4662-956b-2abb81b2cdc2″ button_text_size=”14px” custom_margin=”1px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”5px||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” button_text_size_tablet=”15px” button_text_size_phone=”13px” button_text_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last Wednesday we had the award ceremony for the winner of Student LabVIEW Coding Challenge 2015, SLVCC15.
