I am not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice.
* NumPy is BSD-licensed, which means you can use NumPy in a commercial product as long as you include its license.
* PyDAQmx is BSD-licensed as well. (You can find that information in their GitHub repository's README, https://github.com/clade/PyDAQmx<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_clade_PyDAQmx&d=CwMFaQ&c=IV_clAzoPDE253xZdHuilRgztyh_RiV3wUrLrDQYWSI&r=XhZdnDxKqbMVxHnMKS8cy39qvizJj-B5o1h42ApbaXU&m=g9V4Hi68th5LHEdybauMHDf3-P8FxDr7KoBeaF1zDos&s=YFRBLoWBFEXPbaDcMCvXQXuGi1TLIcuwhwlebfvQX34&e=>)
* Py Visa is MIT licensed (info on their GitHub: https://github.com/hgrecco/pyvisa/blob/master/LICENSE<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_hgrecco_pyvisa_blob_master_LICENSE&d=CwMFaQ&c=IV_clAzoPDE253xZdHuilRgztyh_RiV3wUrLrDQYWSI&r=XhZdnDxKqbMVxHnMKS8cy39qvizJj-B5o1h42ApbaXU&m=g9V4Hi68th5LHEdybauMHDf3-P8FxDr7KoBeaF1zDos&s=RNSWKR0E0lk6NXmKDXICYkut9j3iAoAuWz8arjFMnfc&e=>), which means you can also use it in your software as long as you include the license.

It's never a bad idea to consult a lawyer. Since you work for GE, I would imagine there is an army of lawyers happy to answer this question at your disposal. Finding out how to talk to them might be the hard part.
