Installation: Extract the files from the archive, making sure to retain the original folder structure. If you wish, add the directory to the MATLABPATH.
To Start: If you have added
the installation directory to the MATLABPATH when you installed it,
you can just run the strobedemo.m
function and the GUI will start.
If you have not added the installation directory to the MATLABPATH,
first change to the directory in which the files were extracted and
then run the strobedemo.m
function. The program will ask you if it is okay to add the
installation directory to the path for the duration of the current
Matlab session. Answer yes.

Hardware Set-up (Optional): Strobe Demo GUI supports optional hardware to drive a strobe light for demonstration use. Using the strobe light allows one to actually see what the MATLAB GUI predicts. A strobe controller box along with a USB cable is need to run the hardware experiment. In addition, drivers are needed for Windows installation. Currently, only Windows XP and 2K are supported. The description of the hardware setup along with the supporting MATLAB files are available upon request, please contact jim.mcclellan@ece.gatech.edu.
