I need to write a program for machine with 8 servo motors. This program must be able to read and interpret a simpler
language ( home made ) that describes the machine operation because it will change frequently. My leader wants to use LabView for this but I am having some time getting dataflow programming in my head. At this point I am on a path to write a rats nest wires and boxes that will be hard to maintain. I can do it well in other languages.
Is this a learning curve thing, is it just as easy to write code with many states and interactions in in graphical language as say python once you get the hang of it.
I want to switch but I need some ammunition to back my point. Anybody know any public comparison for machine control.
Oh and none of the devices on the machine have any LabView blocks. It's all bit banging out instructions.
