It is independent from Mathworks’ Raspberry Pi target and thus does not interfere with it. IMU devices, like the MPU9150, directly connected to the target with I2C, are also supported by this blockset. With the last version of RPIt, you can also control up to 4 Lego NXTs simultaneously within Simulink (for this you need of course a USB hub attached to your target). This block supports all EV3-compatible actuators and sensors. The dialog between the target and the EV3 uses bytecodes understandable by the virtual machine implemented in Lego’s original firmware. The EV3 brick is connected to the target with USB. The provided blockset includes an “EV3″ block for interfacing Simulink with the Lego EV3 brick running the standard firmware. It allows for on-the-fly parameters tuning and measurements visualization thanks to live scopes. The communication between the target and Simulink is asynchronous. Though the measured jitter is around 100 microseconds, which is pretty small. The executable running on the target uses standard Unix timing mechanisms. Then, the executable is launched on the target and a TCPIP connection is started between Simulink and the target.
The Simulink block-diagram is automatically converted into C code, transferred to the target and compiled directly on the target (no cross-compilation). In the following "target" means a distant Debian-based computer (e.g. It is an independent project that targets mainly (but not only) the Raspberry Pi (RPI) embedded platform from the Matlab/Simulink environment using Simulink's external mode feature. RPIt stands for " Raspberry PI Simulink Coder target". Add support for the latest 2014a release.Multiple NXTs can be controlled through USB. Add compatibility with generic Debian-based targets, not only the RPI (the target can be a Ubuntu PC, ARM or x86).Add compatibility with Linux releases of Matlab/Simulink.
