The MATLAB Dobot API provides a complete interface to control the Dobot Magician robotic arm via USB using serial communication.
It enables:
  • Cartesian and Joint motion commands (PTP, linear, jump, incremental)
  • End-effector control (gripper and suction cup)
  • Real-time pose reading and digital I/O handling
  • Queued commands for synchronized motion sequences
This toolbox is fully ported from the popular PyDobot Python library.
It includes example scripts demonstrating a pick-and-place sequence and is ideal for robotics education, automation projects, and research.
