I would know if it exits a way to let communicate Simulink to a device connected to the USB port of Raspberry Pi?

Hello Salvatore, yes there is. Check out: http://www.mathworks.de/hardware-support/raspberry-pi.html. You need the Support Package which you can download directly from the web site, or, if you have a recent release, from within MATLAB.

Absolutely. For reference, check out the video on the web site I provided the link to (it gets interesting at around 6:25). The simple demo includes a web cam (USB) to capture video. Does that help?

Hi Mischa,
I got a similar issue where I want to connect a sensor to the usb port of the pi. This is a serial device and I already got a different serial device connected to the pi via its TXD and RXD pins so I am using a serial to USB converter to plug the sensor to the usb port. Can you help?
Thanks Kalpa

It depends on what you attach to the USB port. For example, if you attach a USB Webcam, the Raspberry Pi registers it as a V4L2 video capture device and you can use the V4L2 Video Capture block to acquire images from the device. Since the USB port is a host port, you can only communicate with slave devices attached to this port. You will not be, for example, able to connect a USB cable between your host computer and the Raspberry Pi and communicate with your host computer from the R-Pi.
If you provide more information on your use case, I can provide a more detailed answer.

Hi, I have got the same problem. I want to connect an EMG sensor via the raspberry pi USB port. Did you solve this problem? Could you help me?
