“Simulink®, SimMechanics, and Real-Time Workshopenabled us to autonomouslygo from an accurate CAD model of the MRO vehicle into C code that runs in real time.”

Jim Chapel,Lockheed Martin Space Systems

Lockheed Martin Space Systems Uses SimMechanics with a Real-Time Simulator to Automate Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Development

The Challenge To develop the guidance, navigation, and control system for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter

The Solution Use MathWorks tools to accelerate control design and automate the development of accurate, real-time spacecraft simulations

The Results � Spacecraft pointing simulation modeled in days � Interorganization communication improved � Efficient code generated automatically
