How can I export the kinematics model from an assembly with mechanism connections to e.g. MatLab?

For reasons I don't want to bother you with, I would like to export the mechanism model (like the set of mechanism connections or constraints ) of an assembly to MatLab. A mechanism model is basically a set of coordinate systems with transformation rules the describe the relation between a slave coordinate system to its master coordinate system.

How could I export the relevant information out of an assembly or mechanism model?

 

(This is not a Creo version related question, but I use currently version 9.0.5.0,)

Thanks for your quick response!

The fun part is that I was actually looking for a different kind of export, but to keep my question simple I mentioned MatLab. With your answer I will consider to actually using MatLab, if the plugin does what I hope it will do.
