MATLAB® class and Simulink® blocks for communicating with an Arduino board

NOTE: This solution (formerly known as "Arduino IO Package") is no longer supported. It is recommended that you use Arduino support packages that are developed and supported by MathWorks:

• MATLAB Support Package for Arduino Hardware: Interactively read, write, and analyze data from Arduino sensors http://www.mathworks.com/hardware-support/arduino-matlab.html

• Simulink Support Package for Arduino Hardware: Develop algorithms that run standalone on your Arduino http://www.mathworks.com/hardware-support/arduino-simulink.html

Use this legacy support only if one of the following is true:

• You are using MATLAB R2013b or earlier (but not earlier than R2011a).
• You are using unsupported Arduino clones which won't work with the official packages (e.g. ChipKit32)

Sample usage:

%-- connect to the board a = arduino('COM9')

%-- specify pin mode a.pinMode(4,'input'); a.pinMode(13,'output');

%-- digital i/o a.digitalRead(4) % read pin 4 a.digitalWrite(13,0) % write 0 to pin 13

%-- analog i/o a.analogRead(5) % read analog pin 5 a.analogWrite(9, 155) % write 155 to analog pin 9

%-- serial port a.serial % get serial port a.flush; % flushes PC's input buffer a.roundTrip(42) % sends 42 to the arduino and back

%-- servos a.servoAttach(9); % attach servo on pin #9 a.servoWrite(9,100); % rotates servo on pin #9 to 100 degrees val=a.servoRead(9); % reads angle from servo on pin #9 a.servoDetach(9); % detach servo from pin #9

%-- encoders a.encoderAttach(0,3,2) % attach encoder #0 on pins 3 (pin A) and 2 (pin B) a.encoderRead(0) % read position a.encoderReset(0) % reset encoder 0 a.encoderStatus; % get status of all three encoders a.encoderDebounce(0,12) % sets debounce delay to 12 (~1.2ms) a.encoderDetach(0); % detach encoder #0

%-- adafruit motor shield (with AFMotor library) a.motorRun(4, 'forward') % run motor forward a.stepperStep(1, 'forward', 'double', 100); % move stepper motor

%-- close session delete(a)
