Re: Use SimMechanics as a pure 3D Motion Visualization tool?

Hi Andress,

try the example mech_robot_vr, where teh visualization is made by
Simulink 3D Animation. If you like that, explore the "vrphysmod" command
that adds blocks that are needed for virtual reality visualization to a
block diagram. You will need to create a scene, where each robot body is
associated with a 3D shape.

Hope this helps,

Jan
