Overview
Simulink 3D Animation™ provides an interface linking Simulink® models and MATLAB® algorithms to 3D graphics objects. It lets you visualize and verify dynamic system behavior in a virtual reality environment. Objects are represented in the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML), an open 3D modeling standard. You can animate a 3D world by changing object properties such as position, rotation, and scale during desktop and real-time simulations. You can also access 3D animation data in Simulink or MATLAB for post-processing.
Simulink 3D Animation includes a viewer for rendering and recording high-quality animations. With the 3D World Editor, you can author detailed scenes assembled from 3D models exported from CAD-based or Web-based sources. You can incorporate multiple 3D scene views inside MATLAB figures and interact with these views via a force-feedback joystick, space mouse, or other hardware device.
