Integration of the mathworks simulink real time workshop toolchain with ros. Allows you to create simulink controllers and connect them with ros topics for input and output.

Provided tools: rosmatlab: rosrun ros_simulink matlab launches matlab with an additional xmlrpc server to remote control simulink from the ros toolchain

load: rosrun ros_simulink load <mdl file | ros_package_name>

compile: rosrun ros_simulink compile compiles the simulink model in “package_dir/simulink/package_name.mdl” to the “package_dir/rtw/” directory and generates ros code for interfacing the rtw c-files

roscreate-simulinkpkg creates ros package with dependencies, file system setup and a simulink file with rtw settings and simulation settings ready to go

cmake integration: use the cmake statement to generate ros_simulink binary gen_simulink_bin(executable_name mdl-file)
