Taming the Complexity of Mechatronic Design

System-level simulation reduces the cost and time of developing mechatronic systems. Simulation exposes integration problems between embedded control software and electromechanical systems early in the design process when errors are easiest to correct. Engineers can verify and generate embedded software from the simulation model and eliminate errors caused by hand coding.

Presented by Tony Lennon, Industry Manager, MathWorks
