Requirements

Before setting up the Webots-Simulink Bridge, ensure that your system meets the following requirements.

Software Requirements

  • MATLAB & Simulink (Recommended: R2024a or later)
  • Webots (Recommended: Latest stable version)
  • C Compiler compatible with MATLAB (e.g., MinGW, MSVC)

MATLAB Toolboxes

Ensure that the following MATLAB toolboxes are installed: - MATLAB Coder (for interfacing with external libraries) - Simulink (for model-based design and simulation) - Embedded Coder (optional, for advanced code generation)

System Requirements

  • Operating System: Windows 10/11, Ubuntu 20.04+ (Recommended)
  • RAM: At least 8GB (16GB recommended for large simulations)
  • Processor: Multi-core processor (Intel i5/i7 or AMD Ryzen recommended)
  • GPU: Dedicated GPU recommended for better rendering in Webots

Dependencies

The following dependencies should be installed and configured properly: - Webots API (Ensure Webots' shared libraries are accessible by MATLAB) - MATLAB External Library Support (Proper setup of calllib for Webots' functions)

Once these requirements are met, proceed to the Setup Guide to configure the bridge.
