Jens Ramrath, Sr. Systems Engineer, quickly explains how to get started integrating STK and Matlab.
Here is Jens' code:
%%%%% establish connection between STK and Matlab %%%%%
% option 1: start up a new instance of STK
% uiApplication = actxserver('STK11.application');
% uiApplication.Visible = 1;
% uiApplication.UserControl = 1;
% option 2: connect to running instance of STK
uiApplication = actxGetRunningServer('STK11.application');
% get the root object
root = uiApplication.Personality2;
%%%%% interact with scenario %%%%%
sc = root.CurrentScenario
% new facility
fac = sc.Children.New('eFacility', 'OMFac');
fac.Position.AssignGeodetic(12.345, 123.456, 0.0);
% do this in a loop
for lat = 0:5
for lon = 0:5
thisPlaceName = ['ThisPlace_' num2str(lat) '_' num2str(lon)];
thisFac = root.CurrentScenario.Children.New('eFacility', thisPlaceName);
thisFac.Position.AssignGeodetic(lat, lon, 0.0);
thisFac.Graphics.Color = '0,255,0';
end
end
