Getting started with ROS and Simulink

In the previous sections, we discussed how to interact with ROS using MATLAB. In this section, we are going to use another powerful tool of MATLAB: Simulink. Simulink is a graphical programming environment for modeling, simulating, and analyzing dynamical systems. We can use Simulink to create a model of a system and simulate its behavior over time.

In this section, we will start creating a first simple system outer from the ROS framework. We will also discuss how to develop a ROS application using Simulink.
