In honor of National Pet Day on April 11th, we're excited to announce a fun contest that combines two of our favorite things: our beloved pets and our passion for MATLAB/Simulink! Whether you're a cat enthusiast, a dog lover, or a companion to any other pet, we invite you to join in the fun and showcase your creativity.
How to Participate:
  • Take a photo of your pet featuring any element of MATLAB/Simulink.
  • Post it in the Fun channel of the Discussions area.
  • Include a brief description or story behind the photo - we love to hear about your pets and your creative process!
🏆 Prizes:
We will be selecting 3 winners for this contest, and each winner will receive a MathWorks T-shirt or hat! Winners will be chosen based on creativity, originality, and how well they incorporate the MATLAB/Simulink element into their photo.
📅Important Dates:
Contest ends on April 12th, 2024, at 11:59:59 pm, Eastern Time
We can't wait to see all of your adorable and creative pet photos. Let's celebrate National Pet Day in true MathWorks style. Good luck, and most importantly, have fun!
Hi guys
This is regarding my shared ThingSpeak channel. Previously it was showing the widgets side by side but in recent days it's showing widget under widget.
Why is that? Please help.

Hello, brilliant minds of our engineering community!
We hope this message finds you in the midst of an exciting project or, perhaps, deep in the realms of a challenging problem, because we've got some groundbreaking news that might just make your day a whole lot more interesting.
🎉 Introducing PreAnswer AI - The Future of Community Support! 🎉
Have you ever found yourself pondering over a complex problem, wishing for an answer to magically appear before you even finish formulating the question? Well, wish no more! The MathWorks team, in collaboration with the most imaginative minds from the realms of science fiction, is thrilled to announce the launch of PreAnswer AI, an unprecedented feature set to revolutionize the way we interact within our MATLAB and Simulink community.
What is PreAnswer AI?
PreAnswer AI is our latest AI-driven initiative designed to answer your questions before you even ask them. Yes, you read that right! Through a combination of predictive analytics, machine learning, and a pinch of engineering wizardry, PreAnswer AI anticipates the challenges you're facing and provides you with solutions, insights, and code snippets in real-time.
How Does It Work?
  • Presentiment Algorithms: By simply logging into MATLAB Central, our AI begins to analyze your recent coding patterns, activity, and even the intensity of your keyboard strokes to understand your current state of mind.
  • Predictive Insights: Using a complex algorithm, affectionately dubbed "The Oracle", PreAnswer AI predicts the questions you're likely to ask and compiles comprehensive answers from our vast database of resources.
  • Efficiency and Speed: Imagine the time saved when the answers to your questions are already waiting for you. PreAnswer AI ensures you spend more time innovating and less time searching for solutions.
We are on the cusp of deploying PreAnswer AI in a beta phase and are eager for you to be among the first to experience its benefits. Your feedback will be invaluable as we refine this feature to better suit our community's needs.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Spoiler, it's April 1st if you hadn't noticed. While we might not (yet) have the technology to read minds or predict the future, we do have an incredible community filled with knowledgeable, supportive members ready to tackle any question you throw their way.
Let's continue to collaborate, innovate, and solve complex problems together, proving that while AI can do many things, the power of a united community of brilliant minds is truly unmatched.
Thank you for being such a fantastic part of our community. Here's to many more questions, answers, and shared laughs along the way.
Happy April Fools' Day!

The cloks have changed in the UK having gone forward 1 hour but the times on the thingspeak graphs are out an hour - what is the solution please
More than 500,000 people have subscribed to the MATLAB channel. MathWorks would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to watch one of our videos, leave us a comment, or share our videos with others. Together we’re accelerating the pace of engineering and science.

Hi All,
I'm trying to produce some nice figures from the graphical user interface and have a set of local sensitivity analyses that I'd like to combine.
I have two inputs that vary the sensitivies of my system and would like to plot them on top of each other like:
Is there either a way to do this natively in simbiology (when you try and use 'keep results from each run' it plots them both as a time series) or to export the sensitivity data to the normal matlab programatic UI where I can combine them by hand?
Thank you for your help!
Hi everyone, I need help for transfering the data from a ThingSpeak' channel to Google Sheets. Please help me.
Suppose I want to use tiledlayout to draw a 4*6 figure. Now I want to let the first and second row of figures share the same ylabels, and so do the third and the fourth. But I did not find a way to do this. I tried to create two different tiledlayout on one figure, but tiledlayout did not allow me to do so. Thus, any suggestions?

Englisch Translate Französisch Deutsch Deutsch Russisch PONS Deepl übersetzer Spanisch Deutsch DeepL kostenlos Deutsch Englisch hallo, ich bitte um Hilfe! Seit Jahren habe ich Konto auf Thingspeak, den ich für meinen Zweck nicht richtig nutzen kann. Ich kann "Upoad to meine private Chanel", aber das lesen funktioniert nicht, weder in ArdunioIDE, noch Ardunio iot kann ich die gesendete Daten (Temperatur) von einem anderen Board lesen, es ist egal, ob ESP8266, ESP32, MKR, oder UnoWifi Rev2. Nichts! Die Beispiele im Bibliotek sind eine Katastrophe, "wetter-chanel" und diese funktionieren auch nicht. Auch nicht die von GitHub. Es sollte aber einfach sein, denn auf meiner Seite sehe ich ja "GET"+ url. inkl json+result.

Wo gibt es eine richtige sketch für "read private chanel/field" , welche funktioniert? Man braucht nicht die Wifi-Enstellungen, sondern den code für die Abfrage, "Serial.print"(value)"

Bitte um Hilfe, danke schön.

hello, I ask for help! I've had an account on Thingspeak for years, but I can't use it properly for my purpose. I can "Upoad to my private Chanel", but reading doesn't work, neither in ArdunioIDE nor Ardunio iot can I read the sent data (temperature) from another board, it doesn't matter whether ESP8266, ESP32, MKR, or UnoWifi Rev2. Nothing! The examples in the library are a disaster, "weather-chanel" and they don't work either. Not even the one from GitHub. But it should be easy, because on my site I see “GET”+ url. including json+result.

Where is there a proper sketch for "read private chanel/field" that works? You don't need the WiFi settings, but the code for the query, "Serial.print"(value)"

Please help, thank you very much.

Hello Everyone,
I'm running an IoT project at my university using a free . Basically, my system uploads the sensor data to 4 different fields of a ThingSpeak channel and I'm reading from or writing to the channel through Simulink. I have a few questions regarding this topic:
  1. I'm trying to upload to the server every 3 seconds (which seemed to be providing the best results so far). Since the channel only accepts data transmit every 15 seconds, what is the optimized upload interval rate to match the interval rate of the channel? Because otherwise I have realized that my interval rate can go up to 1min sometimes for some reason.
  2. Is reading from/writing to the channel through simulink while the system is uploading data to the channel slow down th whole process? What is your overall suggestion in this case?
I'm excited to hear your suggestions and experiences!
Regards,
Ege
