NI myRIO LCD with C

[SunainaK]

Overview of what project is:

The myRIO allows for custom expansion boards to be made to break out inputs and outputs into specific user functionality. In this project, the myRIO interfaces with a color LCD giving the user pixel-level control of the LCD and the ability to display bitmap images. This acts as a foundation template for developing LCD based games and applications.

There are two main stages to this project. First, an expansion board was developed using NI Multisim and Ultiboard. After the board was assembled C code was developed to interface the myRIO with the LCD on the expansion board.
