Engine Control Unit Powered by LabVIEW

An exceptional demonstration of dsPIC based Engine Control Unit (ECU) powered by LabVIEW running an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) Engine. In local universities most of the research is paper-oriented or simulation based and sometimes it has nothing to do with real world problems. In Pakistan complete Automotive EFI engines along with ECUs are imported. Engine Control Unit is still like a black box for most of the Researcher or Engineers. There is a lot of research prospective in automotive field especially in Powertrain or Engine controls.

This ECU powered by LabView makes it possible to run challenging complex Model-Based Engine controls. Designers can do real-time implementation, rapid designing and development of an engine control unit (ECU) that comprises of all advance engine control technology. Thanks to interpolation technique that makes it promising to extract a position precision up to 0.5 degrees with just 7 teeth crank wheel.
