December 21, 2024 Advent Calendar Day 21 Kalman Filter
Hey,
what's up? Welcome to Day 21 of my Advent Calendar!

As we eagerly await Christmas, I'm excited to share something special with you
every day related to MATLAB and Simulink

Ever heard of a Kalman filter? It's an incredible algorithm that helps
autonomous systems like self-driving cars and drones navigate with ease and
accuracy.
By using mathematical calculations, it
estimates a system's state and predicts its future movements, filtering out
unreliable sensor data for informed decisions.
The best part? Implementing a Kalman
filter in MATLAB is a breeze! With the Sensor Fusion and Tracking Toolbox, you
can easily set up a Kalman filter for your own autonomous system.
Check out this example for Kalman filter
of sensor fusion and see for yourself how simple and powerful this tool can be.

Let's continue spreading the joy of learning and innovation this holiday
season!

December 19, 2024 Day 19 Advent Calendar Autonomus Surface Vessels
🎄
Welcome to Day 19 of the MATLAB Advent Calendar! 🎅 As we approach Christmas, I’m excited to showcase another
innovative application of MATLAB and Simulink—Autonomous Surface Vessels
(ASVs). These vessels are revolutionizing industries such as maritime
transport, environmental monitoring, and offshore operations. Today, let’s
explore how MATLAB and Simulink empower engineers to design, simulate, and test
these sophisticated systems.
ASVs face unique challenges, from
navigating through high-traffic areas to integrating multiple functional
components seamlessly. To address these, MathWorks offers a robust platform for
developing a digital twin—an integrated environment combining the ASV model,
autonomy systems, and operational scenarios. This digital twin enables
efficient testing and validation long before deployment. 🌟
Key components include the vessel platform
with sensors like cameras, LiDAR, IMU, and GPS, as well as propulsion systems
modeled using Simulink and Simscape. These tools allow engineers to simulate
dynamics such as hydrodynamics, cross-flows, and payload effects with high
fidelity. 🎁
🎇
Guidance, navigation, and control are further supported by features like sensor
fusion algorithms, automated parameter tuning, and behavior planning using
Stateflow. These capabilities ensure the ASV can navigate safely while adhering
to maritime rules, such as COLREGs.
But that’s not all. The Cuboid simulation
environment and integration with platforms like Unity and Unreal Engine offer
rich, interactive scenarios for testing collision avoidance, risk assessment,
and situational awareness. From simulating urban waterways to detecting objects
using deep learning, these tools streamline the development of ASVs, ensuring
they operate safely and efficiently in complex environments. 🎅
🎁 Why is
this topic important? Autonomous Surface Vessels are transforming maritime
industries by increasing safety, reducing human risk, and improving operational
efficiency. They’re a vital step toward sustainable and intelligent ocean
operations.
🎀
