Get Started with Simulink Real-Time

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.

Featured Examples

Apply Simulink Real-Time Model Template to Create Real-Time Application

Use the Simulink Real-Time template to create a Simulink model. Starting from the model template provides a new model that has configuration parameters set up for building a real-time application.

Target to Host Transmission by Using UDP

Use UDP blocks to send data from a target computer to a development computer. The transmit real-time application slrt_ex_target_to_host_UDP runs on the target computer and send signal data to the UDP object that the script creates in MATLAB on the development computer.
