Design & Test Control

One Workflow from Requirements Specifiation to Real-Time Testing

We Make Real-Time Testing Easy

With Control Design Prototyping (RCP), you can accelerate controller development by testing and refining your designs on real-time hardware early in the process. Instead of hand-coding or waiting until late stages, you validate and improve concepts within minutes.

Using Speedgoat real-time target machines with Simulink® Real-Time, control algorithms are automatically deployed from MATLAB® Simulink® to hardware. You connect flexible I/O to your system, monitor behavior in real time, and iterate parameters on the fly.

Your advantages

  • Faster cycles – move from design to test in minutes.
  • Early validation – catch issues before they become costly.
  • Seamless workflow – same toolchain from simulation to hardware.
  • Adaptable hardware – scalable, rugged, and reconfigurable I/O

Capabilities

  • High-performance and FPGA-based I/O.
  • Reconfigurable interfaces for evolving setups.
  • Real-time monitoring, data logging, and analysis.
  • Standalone execution and multicore support.

Speedgoat and MathWorks Services

Speedgoat and MathWorks® support you at all stages: from configuring the test systems and on-site commissioning to ensuring that the test systems remain operational throughout their lifecycle.
 Our HIL experts are on hand to assemble modular HIL racks that meet your specific testing needs: Your HIL racks can be equipped with signal conditioning, power sources and loads, and fault insertion units as well as the required I/O connectivity and cabling — a complete plug-and-test solution for your immediate use. Upon request, we can also accompany you during site- and factory-acceptance testing (FAT/SAT) to verify signals and connectivity.

One Seamless Workflow

Speedgoat delivers a unified workflow—from control design prototyping and HIL testing to certification—streamlining the entire path from model to deployment with consistency and confidence.
