that address the increasing complexity of testing and measurement in industries such as semiconductors, transportation, and electronics.
Built on the latest generation of large-language models and trained to understand NI software, Nigel is a trusted advisor that helps engineers increase their productivity while maintaining control of their test environment. This new technology helps engineers more efficiently use their flagship testing software, NI LabVIEW™ and NI TestStand™, by analyzing code and providing recommendations for improvements in test development and execution. Nigel allows users to ask questions via plain language messages to receive detailed suggestions for using hundreds of features, all while protecting user data through a secure cloud platform.
“The launch of Nigel AI Advisor represents another game-changing innovation from NI that will redefine what’s possible with testing and measurement,” said Ritu Favre, president of Emerson’s testing and measurement business. “Nigel reduces the complexity of testing, allowing engineers to focus on their own innovation and business objectives.”.
First introduced to attendees at this year's NI Connect conference, Nigel AI Advisor is the initial release driven by Emerson's investment in integrating AI capabilities into its broad portfolio of NI test and measurement software. NI LabVIEW and NI TestStand are included in NI LabVIEW+ Suite , which also includes other purpose-built software tools that work together to help engineers automate measurement, analysis, and testing.
Emerson plans to further integrate Nigel into its other testing software products to help engineers save time and resources for higher-level tasks. As large linguistic models advance and Emerson continues to refine its testing and measurement capabilities, Nigel AI Advisor will accelerate its intelligence and further expand its capabilities in the field.
