Dear @Work RoboCuppers, I would like to share with you this MathWorks newsletter. Sorry for duplicates. Daniele ---- Hello RoboCup Major league participants, Here are the latest news from *MathWorks*: a Global Sponsor of RoboCup. *MATLAB Release 2018a is Now Available!** *If your team already has a license, download R2018a here <https://www.mathworks.com/downloads/>*.* Otherwise, have your advisor or team leader request a complimentary license for your RoboCup <https://www.mathworks.com/academia/student-competitions/robocup.html> team. New capabilities include: * 2D lidar SLAM [online example <https://www.mathworks.com/help/robotics/examples/implement-online-simultane…>] [offline example <https://www.mathworks.com/help/robotics/examples/implement-simultaneous-loc…>] + 2D/3D SLAM back-end using pose graph optimization * Simulink blocks for manipulator algorithms [Rethink Sawyer example <https://www.mathworks.com/help/robotics/examples/perform-safe-trajectory-tr…>] * 3D Occupancy maps <https://www.mathworks.com/help/robotics/ref/robotics.occupancymap3d-class.h…> * Performance improvements for reading rosbag files into MATLAB as structures <https://www.mathworks.com/help/robotics/ref/readmessages.html> * Point cloud processing: Euclidean clustering <https://www.mathworks.com/help/vision/ref/pcsegdist.html> and normal-distribution transform (NDT) registration algorithm <https://www.mathworks.com/help/vision/ref/pcregisterndt.html> * Image Labeler App <https://www.mathworks.com/help/vision/ref/imagelabeler-app.html> for semantic segmentation ground truth labeling * Many new deep learning features <https://www.mathworks.com/help/nnet/release-notes.html> and GPU Coder improvements for neural networks <https://www.mathworks.com/help/gpucoder/release-notes.html> * Simulink simulation pacing <https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/ug/simulation-pacing.html> with wall clock *Featured Robotics Arena Examples* Here are the new 2018 examples featured on the MATLAB and Simulink Robotics Arena <https://www.mathworks.com/academia/student-competitions/roboticsarena.html>.** *Robot Manipulator algorithms*[Files <https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/65316-matlab-and-simul…>] [Blog + Video, Part 1 <https://blogs.mathworks.com/racing-lounge/2018/04/11/robot-manipulation-par…>] [Blog + Video, Part 2 <https://blogs.mathworks.com/racing-lounge/2018/04/25/robot-manipulation-par…>] /Learn how to perform kinematic and dynamic analysis of robot manipulators, as well as create high- and low-level control algorithms, with MATLAB and Simulink./// *Mobile Robotics Simulation Toolbox*[Files <https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/66586-mobile-robotics-…>] [Video <https://www.mathworks.com/videos/matlab-and-simulink-robotics-arena-getting…>] /Download our latest toolbox for 2D kinematics, sensor modeling, and visualization of robotic vehicles with MATLAB and Simulink./ *Getting Started with MATLAB, Simulink, and ROS*[Files <https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/64534-getting-started-…>] [Blog + Videos <https://blogs.mathworks.com/racing-lounge/2017/11/08/matlab-simulink-ros/>] /Learn how Robotics System Toolbox can help you prototype algorithms in MATLAB and Simulink, as well as automatically deploy standalone ROS nodes./ *Walking Robot Modeling and Simulation*[Files <https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/64227-matlab-and-simul…>] [Blog + Videos <https://blogs.mathworks.com/racing-lounge/2017/10/11/walking-robot-modeling…>] /Learn how to model legged robots, build detailed joint actuator models, and optimize walking trajectory simulations with MATLAB and Simulink./ *Talk to Us!* We will be at the RoboCup German Open <https://www.robocupgermanopen.de/> and RoboCup 2018 <http://www.robocup2018.com/>.
