Hi Prajwal,
As per my understanding, you want to bulid a customizable headlamp block in simulink. You can follow the following steps to accomplish the same.
1. Open Simulink: Launch MATLAB and open Simulink by typing "simulink" in the MATLAB command window.
2. Create a new Simulink model: In the Simulink Library Browser, right-click on "Simulink" and select "New Model." Give your model a name, e.g., "Customizable_Headlamp_Model."
3. Create the basic headlamp block: Drag and drop a "Subsystems" block from the Simulink Library Browser into your model. Open the subsystem by double-clicking on it.
4. Design the headlamp model: Inside the subsystem, use Simulink blocks such as "Gain" for brightness control, "Signal Routing" for direction control, and "Scope" for visualization (optional) to build a basic headlamp model.
5. Make the headlamp customizable: Add parameters that can be adjusted by the user. One way to do this is by using "Mask Parameters." To create a Mask Parameter:
- Right-click on a block you want to customize.
- Select "Block Parameters" and go to the "Mask" tab.
- Click "Create Mask" and then "Create."
6. Define the parameters: In the Mask Editor window, define the parameters you want to customize. For example, you can add parameters for brightness, direction, or even headlamp color.
7. Update the block behavior: Modify the block's parameters in the model based on the values provided by the user through the Mask Parameters.
8. Save and close the Mask Editor.
9. Connect input ports: Add input ports to the headlamp block so that users can provide inputs to control the headlamp parameters. Right-click the block and select "Add Input" from the context menu.
10. Connect output ports: Add output ports to the headlamp block to pass the adjusted parameters to other parts of the model. Right-click the block and select "Add Output" from the context menu.
11. Save the model: Save your Simulink model after making all the necessary connections and adjustments.
12. Test the customizable headlamp block: To test the block, create a simulation scenario or use real-time data inputs. Provide different values to the headlamp block's input ports and observe the results.
This is just a basic outline of creating a customizable headlamp block. Depending on the complexity of your headlamp model and the level of customization you want to provide, you may need to use more advanced Simulink features and blocks.

I hope this helps resolving the issue.
