Description

Muscle Car is one of the vehicles that you can use within the 3D simulation environment. This environment is rendered using the Unreal Engine® from Epic Games®. The following diagram provides the dimensions of this vehicle. The height dimensions are with respect to the vertical ground plane. The length and width dimensions are with respect to the origin of the vehicle in the vehicle coordinate system. The origin is on the ground, at the geometric center of the vehicle. For more detailed views of these diagrams, see the Dimensions section.

To add this type of vehicle to the 3D simulation environment:

  1. Add a Simulation 3D Vehicle or Simulation 3D Vehicle with Ground Following block to your Simulink® model.

  2. In the block, set the Type parameter to Muscle car.

Top-down view of muscle car with the origin marked in blue at its center and its width dimensions shown. The width not including rear-view mirrors is 2.009 meters. The width including rear-view mirrors is 2.303 meters.

Side view of muscle car with the origin marked in blue beneath its center and its length and overhang dimensions shown. The rear overhang is 0.945 meters. The distance from the rear overhang to the origin is 1.529 meters. The distance from the origin to the front overhang is 1.491 meters. The front overhang is 0.983 meters. The tire radius is 0.369 meters.

Front view of muscle car with the origin marked in blue beneath its center and its front tire width and front axle dimensions shown. The front tire width is 1.713 meters. The front axle width is 0.243 meters.

Rear view of muscle car with the origin marked in blue beneath its center and its rear tire width, rear axle dimensions, and height shown. The rear tire width is 0.300 meters. The rear axle width is 1.712 meters. The height from the ground to the tire center is 0.241 meters. The height from the tire center to the top of the vehicle is 1.129 meters.

Sensor Mounting Locations

In the 3D simulation sensor blocks, use the Mounting location parameter to mount sensors at predefined locations on the vehicle. The table shows the X, Y, and Z positions of the mounting locations relative to the vehicle origin. These locations are in the vehicle coordinate system, where:

  • The X-axis points forward from the vehicle.

  • The Y-axis points to the left of the vehicle, as viewed when facing forward.

  • The Z-axis points up from the ground.
