EicasLab Demo RT-emb
Validate the rotating table control in real-time on your embedded hardware
The EicasLab Demo RT-emb was developed to allow you to test the Target operative mode of EicasLab (HIL and FVT) with an external hardware target. In order to allow you to test the demo on popular embedded targets, we prepared two versions of the demo: one for the BeagleBone Black (BBB) and the other for the Raspberry Pi (RPi).
The demo highlights the following key features of EicasLab:
- easy porting of the algorithms to the target hardware using Automatic Code Generation for targets;
- support for validating the target executing using Hardware-In-the-Loop and Final Validation Test operative modes.
Download the software
In order to get real-time performance, you need to enable the RT configuration of your Linux operative system both on the PC running EicasLab and on the embedded target, as described in the user manual of the demo. If you have any further questions about requirements and installation issues, please contact us.
If you are a Windows user, anyway you can see the demo working on the webinars.
