Artificial Horizon with LabVIEW

[RLSSpeedy]

Overview
To demonstrate how to make artificial horizon with LabVIEW

Description:
This example code uses 3D picture controls to build up an artificial Horizon. Four items are created; a base image to work from, a rotating drum, a viewing glass, and a rotating compass dial. These items are manipulated depending on the values passed in to the relevant controls. By enabling the camera fixed position switch you can force the location of the camera, and block a user from interacting with the 3D objects.

Instructions:

To implement this example:

1. Run VI
2. Adjust the pitch, roll, and heading to play with it.

To execute this example:

1. Install the required software.
2. Open the VI and refer the Implement Steps

Requirements
Software
LabVIEW 2012 or compatible

Hi - With reference to the above artificial horizon application , we want to add the arrow mark that needs to points the heading value. If we create the arrow mark in .jpg / .stl file and when we add the same into the above horizon 3d object, the inner roll and pitch image has vanished. We couldn't able to add the more pictures into that as per our customized requirement. It would be very great , if you can guide us to accomplish this task. Please do the needful.

With Regards,

Hello,

My group from Uni are trying to use this for our course work. 

We have been given a massive excel sheet but within this we are given pitch, roll and heading and were trying to loop that data to simulate the data. However we are extremely stuck and where wondering if anyone could help out as we are really struggling to get this to work
