Mathworks is hosting a MATLAB seminar entitled “MATLAB and Simulink for Embedded Systems and Robotics” for all Vanderbilt students, faculty and staff.

Date: Wednesday, March 12
Time: 2:30 – 4:30 p.m.
Location: 138 Feathering Hall
Presenter: Adam Filion, Mathworks Application Engineer

In this session, Mr. Filion will demonstrate how to design, simulate, optimize, and deploy an embedded algorithm for Simulink. His example involves developing a streetview robot using LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT.

Highlights include:
Designing and simulating control algorithms in Simulink
Designing advanced event-driven logic using Stateflow
Embedding control logic in low-cost hardware like Arduino, LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT, and Raspberry Pi without any code
Monitoring sensor signals and tuning system parameters in real time
Analyzing collected sensor data in MATLAB
