The Ben Heck Show

Mini Pinball: Pinball Simulation with MATLAB and Simulink (4) (7x22)

Data emisji: Cze 30, 2017

Ben and Felix meet with Terry from MathWorks to find out how they can use MATLAB and Simulink to create a simulation of the mini pinball table that uses an Arduino microcontroller. Terry shows how a 3D model of the table created with Autodesk's Fusion 360 can be imported into Simulink and how the ball movement within the table can be simulated. The simulation model lets the team explore how various table configurations will work without having to physically build them. The team can even play virtual games by controlling the flippers on the simulated table with an XBox One controller! Terry also shows how MATLAB and Simulink algorithms can be embedded onto Arduino and other hardware.
