Unreal Engine 3d Environment
The 3D environment is a digital space designed to simulate real-world phenomena to explore and manipulate objects within the environment. Aerospace Toolbox features extend the 3D Environment (Simulink 3D Animation) provided by Simulink 3D Animation.
Visualize the 3D environment using the Unreal Engine® from Epic Games® for photorealistic rendering. You can access advanced features such as lighting and atmospheric conditions.
Programmatically create and view a 3D environment using MATLAB® or a model.
Use MATLAB and Simulink to communicate with the 3D environment during run-time through the co-simulation framework with the Unreal Engine.
View the 3D environment in the Simulation 3D Viewer using the prebuilt scenes. You can navigate in the 3D environment using keyboard shortcuts and mouse control.
Enhance 3D environment interaction using hardware Interfaces. Interface input devices such as joystick and space mouse with the 3D environment. You can navigate, explore, and control actors within the environment during run-time.
Customize the prebuilt scenes and actors or create new scenes in the Unreal Engine simulation environment using the Aerospace Blockset™ Interface for Unreal Engine Projects support package.
