Automated Materials Joining Technology will appeal to students who want to focus on joining and forming technologies, materials science, computer-aided design and automated systems — key facets of advanced manufacturing — while applying math and science knowledge to design and produce products.

This Engineering Applications of Computer Science Course -Medium Kit will contain items for up to 20 students in one class. Engineer Your World Kits – a full kit of equipment and supplies for your classroom.

This Engineering Design and Analysis Course - Medium Kit will contain items for up to 24 students in one class. Engineer Your World Kits – a full kit of equipment and supplies for your classroom.

Students design a commemorative coin for the U.S. Mint that highlights a social or historical event. Students use rapid prototyping to test their designs and explore how density, mass, and volume can help to determine the dimensions of their designs.

Students become packaging designers as they reverse engineer existing package designs to use flatstock material and be more environmentally friendly. Students explore material properties, volume, surface area and mathematical nets.

Students become research company workers as they develop improved blades for wind turbines used in different geographic areas. Students explore drag and lift as they design their blades and experiment with independent and dependent variables.

The myDevBoard is an accessory board designed to connect directly to the NI myDAQ hardware. The Protoboard consists of a prototyping space as well as each I/O line from NI myDAQ broken out through quad contact blocks to make wiring easier. 

Includes,

• NI myDAQ terminal block and female headers
• 9 V battery holder to add supplemental voltage and current
• Includes switch to select between battery or external power using AC Adapter or bench top power supply. (Battery, AC adapter and bench top power supply not included)
• 3 AMP Auto reset fuse
• Segmented power rails on main bread board
• Large ground plane underneath main bread board 

Bring home the impact that our energy consumption has on the world for your students. Combining this action pack with the National Instruments myDAQ provides real-world data about energy use with a simulated electric smart grid. Using what they learned, students design a solution to an energy challenge of your choice.

This pack provides the myGrid miniSystem, NI LabVIEW™ Power & Energy software, detailed lesson plans with Next Generation Science and Common Core Math standard correlations, a small light source, and a Kill A Watt meter. An NI myDAQ is required, sold separately. Comes with PC-based installation DVD.

Note: Includes 12 volt power supply. Customers outside North America may require local plug adapter.

Extend the reach of your MXP port by using this 8 inch cable to re-position you boards where you need them.

Compatable with MXP accessory boards like the protoboard, RIOduino and myRIO.

Features:

• Keyed male and female 34-pin connectors
• 28 AWG ribbon cable
• 34 conductor
• 8? length

Working with the NI myTemp miniSystem and materials from this pack, students gain a scientific understanding of temperature, how to measure it, the three methods of heat transfer (conduction, convection, and radiation), and more. The lessons include vocabulary, resources, and assessments.

Student teams also work with a thermometer, lightbulb, Solar H2O Heater, and other hands-on materials.

The two-student pack provides materials and equipment for two students working as a team; the 10-student pack provides materials and equipment for 10 students working in teams of two. Includes a teacher's guide and DVD. Requires an NI myDAQ per student team, sold separately

Warm students up to the concepts of thermal conduction, insulation, and other heated subjects with this National Instruments Action Pack featuring the myTemp miniSystem.

Following the lesson plans, students learn to measure and gather data for heat as it moves through various materials such as aluminum and wood.

This pack provides the Pitsco myTemp miniSystem, NI LabVIEW™ Discover Heat Transfer software, detailed lesson plans with Next Generation Science and Common Core Math standard correlations, seven thermistors, electric heating plate and heat lamp, and other materials needed to complete the investigations. An NI myDAQ is required, sold separately. Comes with PC-based installation DVD.

The myGrid for NI myDAQ is an AC power grid that will help a student investigate the components of a power grid. The myGrid interfaces with NI myDAQ to demonstrate energy monitoring, energy conservation, and the concept of the smart grid. The system includes a traditional power source through a motor representing fossil fuels and a renewable power source using a solar panel. It models how power is generated, transmitted, and distributed in a residential setting across three houses.

Get your students quickly involved in building essential electronic circuits using myParts Kit supported by the Texas Instruments® University Program. The set of key components in the myParts Kit encourages hands-on experimentation with breadboards of basic circuitry, helping to make learning productive and enjoyable for beginners and more advanced students alike. Hobbyists and independent developers will also find the kit useful for investigating their design concepts. The kit comes with a collection of parts that are the building blocks of all electronics, including op-amps, an instrumentation amplifier, a comparator, voltage regulators, switching regulators, digital logic gates, timers, temperature sensors, data converters, transistors, resistors, capacitors, LEDs, switches, a wiring kit and more. myParts Kit enables your students to run experiments that help them understand real-life applications in areas such as power management, audio amplification, spinning motors, light detection, signal conditioning, data acquisition, and telecommunications to name a few.

MXP Breadboard for myRIO is a 300 tie breadboard with a 50 tie bus bar on an expansion card compatible with the myRIO Expansion Port (MXP). The MXP Breadboard functions as an I/O breakout, with digital and analog signals mapped to two headers on either side of the breadboard itself. The MXP Breadboard's connector is also keyed to ensure correct connection with your NI myRIO.

• Industry-standard BNC connectors for quick connection to NI myDAQ analog inputs and outputs
• Access to digital and other NI myDAQ signals via through-hole test points on adapter board
