HHS Building 362
Synopsis: Model-Based Design with MATLAB/Simulink provides a mathematical and visual approach to develop complex systems. It provides a common language for cross-functional teams that work in mechanics, electronics, controls, software, etc. The teams develop models of motors & drives, mechanical linkages, electronics boards, algorithms, and various other components. It is in the Simulink system models that components are brought together, and interfaces and requirements are defined. Through the simulation in Simulink, system dynamics are understood, and component design iterations advance rapidly. Session Details: 1. Simulating Mechatronics Systems 2. Developing Controls 3. Generating Software for Arduino from Simulink Models 4. Test Control on Arduino Please bring your great questions – we are looking forward to an interactive session!
