element14 to distribute MATLAB and Simulink Student Suite

element14 is now an official distributor of MATLAB and Simulink Student Suite, a professional grade suite of tools allowing students to model, simulate and analyse projects in software and then program hardware using the same tools commercial engineers and scientists use every day.

The product includes MATLAB, Simulink and 10 add-on products. It includes all the software tools needed by a student user to create great projects with popular low-cost platforms with free hardware support packages. Hardware support packages for Arduino and Raspberry Pi are available for free.

The 10 add-on products include toolboxes for control system, data acquisition, DSP system, image processing, instrument control, optimisation, signal processing, statistics and machine learning and symbolic math. With these add-on toolboxes the user can customise the software to suit their application needs in controls, signal processing, test and measurements, and create a wide range of projects ranging from a personal weather station to a face-detecting robot.
