Scenario Simulation
UAV Toolbox provides two simulation environments in which to test UAV algorithms.
The Unreal Engine simulation environment (requires Simulink® 3D Animation™) renders scenarios using the Unreal Engine from Epic Games®. Use this environment to visualize scenarios using more realistic graphics and to generate high-fidelity ultrasonic, camera, and lidar sensor data. This environment is available in Simulink, and runs on Windows® and Linux® only. To learn more, see Unreal Engine Simulation for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.
The cuboid simulation environment, UAVs, terrain, and buildings as polygon meshes. Use this environment to rapidly author scenarios or generate sensor data. Test controllers, tracking algorithms, and sensor fusion algorithms in both MATLAB® and Simulink. To get started authoring a scenario, use the
uavScenarioobject.
