This is a great example of a Model-Based Design process and shows great Simulink use. The block diagrams were well-organized and they used images on masks to illustrate what each subsystem was doing.  I really liked the polished Simulink 3D Animation of the quadcopter!<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=C3tKtP4qV2o\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=C3tKtP4qV2o<\/a>\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/C3tKtP4qV2o\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>1st place<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Matej Kubicka for his extension to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mathworks.com\/matlabcentral\/fileexchange\/13399-embedded-coder-robot-nxt-demo\">ECRobot toolbox<\/a> that allows wireless communication between 2+ NXT robots.  He created his own Simulink library for Xbee communication for the NXT robot brick. He used several techniques in Simulink and Simulink Coder including Simulink S-functions, custom TLC code and even implemented the modeled behavior for simulation as a proof of concept.
