Visual Pursuit Control Library

A MATLAB library for core VPC simulations and experiments.

It includes the essential code files for Visual Pursuit Control scenarios and a Simulink block library including:

• a Gaussian Process block
• a Visual Motion Observer block
• a virtual camera block
• core VPC and rigid body motion blocks

Template Simulink files for a quick start are given as well.
