Design and Verify Control Systems using Simulinknew

Seminar Overview

In this free half-day seminar, MathWorks engineers will introduce how you can use dynamic simulation to model, design and verify control systems before testing on hardware. You will learn how Simulink and other MathWorks products can help you reduce development time and costs, improve quality, and deliver systems with higher performance and efficiency. Using a robot arm control case study, MathWorks engineers will demonstrate how you can:

Troubleshoot existing design problems systematically and effectively, without tying up actual hardware systems
Try different control strategies safely and quickly
Test more thoroughly, by starting before hardware is available and by simulating conditions that would be dangerous or costly to examine with real hardware
Test your system in real time
