Introducing the C-API Simulink Target for RT-Linux

Overview

The C-API Simulink Target for RT-Linux (CAPI STRTL) is an application developed to extend the functionality of the original Simulink Target for RT-Linux (STRTL) by providing the user with full parameter tuning and signal access, of a real time application running in a RT-Linux kernel, independent of the Simulink/MATLAB interface. In this manner, CAPI STRTL extends the utility of the original STRTL from its conventional use in control applications to more exotic fields such as haptics/virtual reality and even augmented reality - not to mention the many other possible implementations users can realize by having signal access and parameter tuning at the disposal of their custom applications.
