PROFILE |
 |
National Instruments turns a PC's mouse into a lab rat. The company's instrumentation hardware and graphical software convert standard PCs into industrial automation and test and measurement systems. The systems, known as "virtual instruments," are used to observe, measure, and control electrical signals and physical attributes such as voltage, temperature, pressure, and speed. Customers outside North America account for nearly half of sales. National Instruments stresses innovation, and continues to increase its research and development budget to expand its product lines. Chairman and CEO James Truchard, one of National Instruments' founders, owns 26% of the company.
