Working with MATLAB Functions

Use MATLAB® functions to program BBC micro:bit

The Simulink® Coder™ Support Package for BBC micro:bit supports MATLAB functions for BBC micro:bit. These functions enable you to communicate with BBC micro:bit from a host computer running MATLAB. Using MATLAB functions, you can collect data from the sensors on BBC micro:bit and actuate devices attached to BBC micro:bit.
