Code Generation

Generate C/C++ code and MEX functions for algorithm acceleration

MATLAB^® Coder™ generates standalone C/C++ code from Robotics System Toolbox™ functions and classes that have been enabled to support code generation. Using the toolbox with MATLAB Coder, you can generate ANSI-compliant C code or MEX functions.

To view a full list of code generation support, see Functions Supporting Code Generation. You can also view the Extended Capabilities section on any reference page.

Topics

Accelerate Robotics Algorithms with Code Generation
You can generate code for select Robotics System Toolbox algorithms to speed up their execution.
Code Generation from MATLAB Code
Several Robotics System Toolbox functions are enabled to generate C/C++ code.
Code Generation Support
To generate code from MATLAB code that contains Robotics System Toolbox functions, classes, or System objects, you must have the MATLAB Coder software.

Featured Examples

Generate Code for Inverse Kinematics Computation Using Robot from Robot Library

Perform code generation to compute Inverse Kinematics (IK) using robots from the robot library. For this example, you can use an inverseKinematics object with an included rigidBodytree robot model using loadrobot to solve for robot configurations that achieve a desired end-effector position.

Generate Code for Manipulator Motion Planning in Perceived Environment

Generate code for planning manipulator motion in a perceived environment. Perceived environments can have a variable number of collision objects that can be a combination of heterogeneous types (spheres, cylinders, meshes, and boxes). This example uses the convertToCollisionMesh function to homogenize the cell array of collision objects by converting the primitive type objects to their mesh equivalents.

Generate Code for Motion Planning Using Robot Model Imported from URDF

Perform code generation to plan motion using robot model imported from URDF file. For this example, you use a manipulatorRRT object with a imported rigidBodytree robot model to find a obstacle-free path between two configurations of the robot. After you verify the algorithm in MATLAB®, use the generated MEX file in the algorithm to visualize the robot movement.
