Announcing NIWeek 2015 "World's Fastest LabVIEW Programmer" Competition!

[Chris_Cilino]

NIWeek 2015 is just a few short weeks away! Community is a huge aspect of NIWeek and one of the most popular and fun community events is the “World's Fastest LabVIEW Programmer” competition. This prestigious title has been successfully defended by NI’s own Darren Nattinger (and if you’ve ever seen him compete you understand why). But this year Darren has announced his retirement from the competition and will go down in history as undefeated for 7 straight years beginning in 2008. While we’re sad that he won’t be competing, that means there will be a new name inscribed on the coveted trophy!

For those of you unfamiliar with the event, the “World’s Fastest LabVIEW Programmer” is a competition to see who can best take advantage of the many LabVIEW IDE tools, like Quick Drop and a vast array of APIs, that make it easy to crank out code at breakneck speeds!

Your journey to the trophy begins at the “LabVIEW Coding Challenge” kiosk in the LabVIEW Zone on the NIWeek expo floor. There you’ll face three challenges designed to put your lightning fast LabVIEW skills to the test. The two fastest competitors will be brought up on the Technology Theater stage Wednesday evening of NIWeek at 5 pm in a live, face to face race to the finish. And of course, spectators are welcome to cheer them on!

Think you have what it takes to be the next World’s Fastest LabVIEW Programmer? Step up to the kiosk and let the race begin .... glory awaits!!
