Simulink Real-Time
Build, run, and test real-time applications
Simulink Real-Time™ lets you create real-time applications from Simulink® models and run them on Speedgoat target computer hardware connected to your physical system. It is designed for real-time simulation and testing tasks, including rapid control prototyping (RCP), DSP and vision system prototyping, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation.
With Simulink Real-Time you can extend your Simulink models with Speedgoat I/O driver blocks and automatically build real-time applications. Tests can be automated or run interactively on a Speedgoat target computer equipped with a real-time kernel, multicore CPUs, I/O and protocol interfaces, and FPGAs.
Simulink Real-Time and Speedgoat target computer hardware are designed to work together to create real-time systems for desktop, lab, and field environments. The software and hardware solution supports the latest versions of MATLAB® and Simulink.
Get Started:
Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL)
HIL simulation verifies your controller’s response by testing it against a simulated plant in real-time. You can model extreme or unusual events to test how your controller responds.
Rapid Control Prototyping (RCP)
Quickly iterate and optimize your design by taking your control algorithm developed in Simulink and deploy to a Speedgoat target computer configured as a prototype controller. You can connect the prototype controller to physical systems to iterate your control algorithm design to find issues earlier.
Drag and Drop Speedgoat I/O Blocks
Speedgoat hardware is made for Simulink and offers an integrated platform for real-time simulation and testing. Design your controls, vision, DSP, or plant model in Simulink, and drag and drop Speedgoat I/O driver blocks in your model.
Add Speedgoat I/O blocks to your model directly from the Simulink Library Browser.
Build and Run
One click to generate code, compile, download, and run on Speedgoat target.
Real-Time Simulation of Physical Systems
Replace physical systems such as vehicle, aircraft, or robot with a real-time simulation of a virtual system to reduce cost of testing. Use Simscape and Simulink Real-Time to rapidly create models of physical systems for HIL simulation.
This example shows an electric vehicle model suitable for HIL deployment.
Interact and Inspect
Tune parameters from your Simulink model in External mode, and stream data to Simulation Data Inspector.
Inspect and compare data and simulation results to validate and iterate model designs.
