Abstract :
An innovative, stand-alone software package that demonstrates numerous DSP concepts is described, and examples of the program´s capabilities are given. By providing a simple and intuitive interface to capable DSP hardware, teachers and students alike can perform real-time interactive, graphical applications. Experimental learning is facilitated by providing simple access to real-time DSP filters and other concepts. This package can help ease the introduction of DSP theory and application to students at all age levels, and stimulate and encourage student interest in DSP. To facilitate student projects with graphical interfaces to DSP hardware, a complete software example has also been made available for use.
