Hi All,

TLDR: What DAQ devices work with both open source drivers and with Labview?

At work we use National Instruments DAQ devices to connect the Labview programs to the outside world. Some are USB like the NI USB 6009[1]

I would like to move away from Labview. I don't like graphical programming, Labview is not as multi platform as I would like, and it's closed source.

I would like to move to Qt, and I've been trying to get the NI USB 6009 to work. Labview offers a C driver for this [2], and while it does support windows, macintosh and linux, it only works on x86 and amd-64 processors, so not on the Raspberry Pi.

So I would like to move to other DAQ devices, but to keep everybody in the office happy, they have to work with both open source drivers as with Labview.

Do you know of such DAQ devices?

Cheers,
Cedric
