A kind of data acquisition platform to test vehicle shifting performance is presented based on virtual instrumentation technology. The platform helps to perform test efficiently by synchronously accessing various kinds of data transferred by electronic transducers and CAN bus, for example the signals of clutch travel, throttle angular, engine speed, gearbox input speed, vehicle velocity and acceleration and so on. A friendly GUI (Graphical user interface) is developed to manage experimental layout based on graphical function block in software of LabVIEW. QSM (Queued Stated Machine) to construct producer consumer architecture with functions of multi-channel and real-time data acquisition, data analysis and data storage is adopted. Vehicle experiment to acquisit data during shifting process of AMT (Automated Mechanical Transmission) are carried out, which takes advantages of high integration, great scalability and excellent reliability. The presented test platform is valuable to design and evaluation of electrical control system in vehicle.

Data Acquisition Systems (DAS) are used for a variety of applications such as environmental monitoring, indoor climate control, health management and medical diagnostics, traffic surveillance and emergency response, disaster management among others. This paper presents the design of a DAS for monitoring environmental temperature, pressure and relative humidity. The system employs Arduino Uno microcontroller for signal processing and Zigbee transceivers operating on the 2.4 GHz license-free Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band as communication modules at both the transmitter and receiver ends. While the transmitter board houses the sensors, a GPS module and an LCD, the receiver system is interfaced with a PC which runs a developed MATLAB GUI for data display and analysis and it incorporates an SD card for data storage. The battery-powered system is a low cost, low-power consumption system which serves as a mini-weather station with real-time data logging, wireless communication and tracking capabilities.

Data acquisition and record system plays an important role in signal processing. For the wideband signal acquisition and processing application, such as 3G/4G Base Stations, Wideband Microwave Backhaul, Military Communications, and RADAR, the need for high speed and smart software-defined radio (SDR) test platform is growing. In this paper, we implement a high compact form factor data acquisition and storage system used for the wideband signal application development. In order to implement high compact, low power and high speed real-time data storage, we use a PCIe-based switch architecture and leverage the Flash array as the storage part. The system supports RF sampling directly and offers a 16TB solid state storage module which could be read and write at the sustained speed of 12.8GB/s.

A data acquisition platform for vehicle test is presented by combining virtual instrumentation technology with graphical programming environment of LabVIEW. Multiple modular instrumentations are employed for capturing different kinds of data from electronic transducers and CAN bus in synchronization. LabVIEW based software adopts QSM-PC (Queued State Machine Producer Consumer) architecture, which can perform functions of multi-channel, real-time data acquisition, processing, storage, and readback. The presented platform, taking advantages of high integratability and great scalability, is verified by real-vehicle experiments.

Sample thickness is a known key parameter in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and can affect the amount of high-resolution information retained in the image. Yet, common data-acquisition approaches in single-particle cryo-EM do not take it into account. Here, it is demonstrated how the sample thickness can be determined before data acquisition, allowing the identification of optimal regions and the restriction of automated data collection to images with preserved high-resolution details. This quality-over-quantity approach almost entirely eliminates the time- and storage-consuming collection of suboptimal images, which are discarded after a recorded session or during early image processing due to a lack of high-resolution information. It maximizes the data-collection efficiency and lowers the electron-microscopy time required per data set. This strategy is especially useful if the speed of data collection is restricted by the microscope hardware and software, or if microscope access time, data transfer, data storage and computational power are a bottleneck.

Among the new trends in technology that have emerged through the Industry 4.0, Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT) are crucial for the real-time data acquisition. This data acquisition, together with its transformation in valuable information, are indispensable for the development of real-time indicators. Moreover, real-time indicators provide companies with a competitive advantage over the competition since they enhance the calculus and speed up the decision-making and failure detection. Our research highlights the advantages of real-time data acquisition for supply chains, developing indicators that would be impossible to achieve with traditional systems, improving the accuracy of the existing ones and enhancing the real-time decision-making. Moreover, it brings out the importance of integrating technologies 4.0 in industry, in this case, CPS and IoT, and establishes the main points for a future research agenda of this topic.
