A method and an apparatus take software source code to synthesize a hardware platform for running the software. The method determines which processor is suitable for running the code and meeting the performance parameters determined by the user. The method also determines which hardware devices are accessed by software. If the hardware target is a semiconductor chip, the invention selects the appropriate IP and creates an HDL description of the chip. If the hardware target is a printed circuit board, the invention creates a schematic or netlist that includes the appropriate microprocessor, the various semiconductor chips, and the necessary interconnections.

A method of calibrating a brake system includes storing several input-signal-value/output-value associations for a specific brake in a memory unique to the specific brake. The method includes determining an input signal associated with a desired output by interpolating between the stored input-signal-value/output-value associations. In one embodiment, the brake system is used in conjunction with a rehabilitation device to provide a device that accurately produces a desired output.
