Universal Robots Cobots

Universal Robots Cobot Support
from MATLAB

Design, simulate, test, and deploy UR Cobot applications

MATLAB^® is a high-level language and development environment used by millions of engineers for their research and design work. Robotic System Toolbox™ extends MATLAB with tools and algorithms specifically for designing, simulating, testing, and deploying robotic applications, including Universal Robots UR series cobots.

MATLAB and Robotic System Toolbox are well suited for specialized or sophisticated cobot applications, unlike UR teach pendant and graphical-based programming tools. These applications include machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, optimization, sensor fusion, and advanced signal processing.

After developing your UR application with MATLAB, you can verify it by connecting to URSim or UR hardware. You can also deploy algorithms directly on embedded targets using ROS Toolbox and MATLAB Coder™.

Capabilities and Features

MATLAB and Robotic System Toolbox let you perform the following tasks:

Design and simulate cobot applications using pre-built algorithms for task scheduling, motion planning, collision avoidance, and more
Connect with Universal Robots UR series robots to test and validate your algorithms
Acquire various sensor data from UR series robots and external sensors and apply sensor fusion techniques

Build autonomous applications using MATLAB add-on products such as Computer Vision Toolbox and Deep Learning Toolbox for machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, and more
Generate and deploy code on the embedded targets connected to your cobot such as Nvidia Jetson
