    Physical Modeling: Building a Rotary Pendulum

    Simulink Support Packages for LEGO MINDSTORMS® hardware let you run the control strategy on the LEGO MINDSTORMS brick and tune parameters while running. This bundle demonstrates two different modeling approaches for physical systems: a traditional approach using textual programming (with MATLAB® and Simulink®) and through MathWorks multi-body simulation environment.
