Nov 22, 2017 at 14:15 comment added frarugi87 @Foad I see your frustration here ;) in any case, if rPI is not supported then arduino, which is MUCH more limited, is totally unsuitable. Try syncing through other means (the signals I mentioned in the answer, or the serial interface). I think that you can implement everything in labview. Or, if you have the drivers for x86 linux, try putting linux on any x86 PC you have; if you succeed, search any x86 single board computer to replace the PC . For instance, wikipedia has a page with comparisons [...]
Nov 22, 2017 at 13:59 comment added Foad well, unfortunately raspberry pi is not an option either. NI doesn't even support common linux distros! it is not easy for me to work on a windows machine, specially in the lab/workshop. The main issue is the garbage sensor I'm using. I strongly discourage anybody from using the type of sensor I have.
