Introduction
|
 |
|
Getting Started with Simulink 3D Animation This demonstration introduces Simulink 3D Animation. You will see how to build a simple virtual scene, how to connect it to
a Simulink model, and how to view the results.
|
|
|
Animations using Simulink 3D Animation This demo shows several examples that were created with Simulink 3D Animation. The examples include: visualization of the
difference electronic stability control makes on a car stability; visualization of a lunar landing mission, visualization
of an industrial robot; space mouse input to a Simulink model and visualization of a manipulator; and HL-20 spacecraft landing
with landing gear collapse.

General Application Examples
|
|
|
Solar System Visualization This model represents the dynamics of the inner Solar System (Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth + Moon, Mars). This is a Simulink
3D Animation example vrplanets.
|
|
|
Inverted Pendulum with Joystick Control This is a variant of the VR inverted pendulum example which allows several methods of setpoint definition input (random, using
mouse, using joystick).This model can serve as an example of interactive control of model with joystick as an input device.

Aerospace Application Examples
|
|
|
Terrain Visualization Demo This demonstration shows how to convert generally available Digital Elevation Models into VRML format for use in virtual reality
scenes. A simple pre-created Boeing 747 model is included in the scene to show the technique of creating virtual scenes from
several sources on-the-fly. The demonstration also highlights the use of MATLAB interface of Simulink 3D Animation.

|
Plane Take-Off with Trajectory Tracing This model shows how to trace the trajectory of a moving object (the plane) in the scene. The aircraft model represents
the simplified shape of a Jaguar fighter. A marker is dropped at the current position of the traced object in regular time
intervals specified by the model. Markers form a visible trace of the object's trajectory.

|
|
Plane Take-off with Sound This example shows visualization of a simple plane take-off model. The aircraft model represents a simplified shape of Jaguar
fighter. In addition to the example included in the product, in this example there is also sound added. The control tower
and fighter jet each emit a different noise. When the user navigates around the virtual world and as the plane takes off,
the sound varies accordingly and creates realistic spatial impression.

|
Design of Satellite Flight Software This demonstration illustrates how to use Aerospace Blockset to perform some of the steps of satellite flight software design
with visualization.

|
|
Modeling a Launch Abort System In this video demonstration, we model a launch abort system with visualization. An aircraft is launched into outer space.
If an anomaly or fault occurs during the launch, the operation is aborted, and the aircraft is sent back down to Earth.

|
Hardware-in-the-Loop Testing of a Position Control System In this demo we show how you can use Simulink to model a position control system for radar tracking. The controller is separated
from the plant and is discretized. Additional nonlinearities are added in the form of saturation. Finally, the controller
model is downloaded to the Freescale MPC555 microcontroller and the plant model to xPC Target for hardware-in-the loop testing
with visualization

Automotive Application Examples
|
|
|
Automotive Power Window In this case study we model an automotive passenger power window system using Model-Based Design with Simulink, Stateflow®,
SimMechanics™, SimPowerSystems™ and Simulink 3D Animation. We will design the controller from a set of requirements, build
a plant model to test the controller, visualize it and finally verify that the controller meets the requirements.

Animated Demo: Skoda Octavia Driving, Seen at Different Viewpoints This example is described in the article published in the MathWorks News & Notes, February 2002. This example shows the dynamics
of a car using a virtual reality interface with a 3D model of the Czech Skoda Octavia car and a virtual model of Pearlblossom
Highway in the background. In this example a technique for animating the user viewpoint to track the position of moving objects
in the scene is shown.

Skid-Steer Parking This example, presented first at the MATLAB automotive conference in Stuttgart, Germany in May 2000, shows virtual reality
representation of a real life situation - parking in a skid. Additionally, it can serve as an example of combining several
types of input information to form a complete virtual reality simulation solution.

|
|
Vehicle Dynamics Visualization with Video Output This demonstration shows how to use video output from the Simulink 3D Animation Video Output block. The demo performs a few
simple operations on the output video signal. The Video Viewer display then shows the resulting video stream where the image
edges are detected.

|
|
Virtual Prototyping: Manipulator with SpaceMouse Control This example shows the use of the Magellan SpaceMouse for manipulating objects in the virtual world. SpaceMouse is supported
via the SpaceMouse Input block, which is included in the Simulink 3D Animation Simulink library. This is a Simulink 3D Animation
example vrmanipul.
