Start Ubuntu

  1. Switch on the setup with the power button on the power socket
  2. Start the computer
  3. Choose the default Linux Kernel
  4. Log in as PITONuser with password PIT2011


Start MATLAB

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Type sudo matlab with password PIT2011


Simulink models

camCalibrate.mdl - can be used to position the camera

PITONlib.mdl - contains library blocks

  • vision
  • motor
  • data storage

PITONtmpl.mdl - a template to use as a starting point for custom experiments

  • uses the MTT target, with the MTT target it is not possible to use Simulink's external mode
  • vision running at 25Hz
  • motion running at 1000Hz

PITONexp1.mdl - an example experiment


Running an experiment

  1. Build the Simulink model using ctrl+b
  2. Ensure the motor power is switched on, the power switch must be turned to the right
  3. Open a terminal
  4. Enable super user privileges by typing sudo su and using password PIT2011
  5. Run ./modelname in the terminal
