xPC Target
Perform hardware-in-the-loop simulation and real-time rapid control prototyping
xPC Target™ enables you to execute Simulink® and Stateflow® models on a target computer for
hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation, rapid control prototyping, and other real-time testing applications. It
provides a library of drivers, a real-time kernel, and a host-target interface for real-time monitoring, parameter
tuning, and data logging.
For a complete, fully assembled, real-time testing solution, xPC Target Turnkey combines xPC Target with a
variety of high-performance real-time target computers.
