Automated Driving Toolbox™ provides an interface to a simulation environment that is visualized using the Unreal Engine® from Epic Games®. Version 4.23 of this visualization engine comes installed with Automated Driving Toolbox. When simulating in this environment, keep these requirements and limitations in mind.
Windows® 64-bit platform
Visual Studio® 2017
Microsoft® DirectX® — If this software is not already installed on your machine and you try to simulate in the 3D environment, Automated Driving Toolbox prompts you to install it. Once you install the software, you must restart the simulation.
In you are customizing scenes, verify that your Unreal Engine project is compatible with the Unreal Engine version supported by your MATLAB® release.
MATLAB Release | Unreal Engine Version |

Note
Mac and Linux® platforms are not supported.
Graphics card (GPU) — Virtual reality-ready with 8 GB of on-board RAM
Processor (CPU) — 2.60 GHz
Memory (RAM) — 12 GB
The Unreal Engine simulation environment blocks do not support:
Code generation
Model reference
Multiple instances of the Simulation 3D Scene Configuration block
Multiple Unreal Engine instances in the same MATLAB session.
Rapid accelerator mode
In addition, when using these blocks in a closed-loop simulation, all Unreal Engine simulation environment blocks must be in the same subsystem.
