Simulation Based Control Architecture Using Webots and Simulink

Abstract

This paper presents a simulation based control architecture that integrates Webots and Simulink for the development and testing of robotic systems. Using Webots for 3D physics based simulation and Simulink for control system design, real time testing and controller validation are achieved efficiently. The proposed approach aims to reduce hardware in the loop dependency in early development stages, offering a cost effective and modular control framework for academic, industrial, and robotics applications.
