In this paper, we present a teaching methodology based on a low‐cost embedded system platform that is easy to use and replicate, oriented to real‐time simulation project development. Designed for real‐time implementation of coding generated with MPLAB Device Blocks for Simulink. The purpose of this methodology is that students, teachers, and professionals will be able to carry out a theoretical project of a simulation in a computer, which includes complex mathematical modeling, to interact with its environment in real‐time. This system has been utilized already by students of Engineering of the first semesters as well as professors and researchers in updated and initialization courses in embedded systems within the University of Guadalajara. Finally, in the results section, we show a comparison of the proposed platform and a dSPACE platform applied in a control problem with an intricate mathematical model to process through a Hardware‐in‐the‐loop (HIL).
