Ball Balancing Full Project With PID Controller + Arduino Code + Matlab Response Plotting

DESCRIPTION

balancing ball beam is a common application on PID(proportional–integral–derivative) controllers that you could find many versions of this project on instructables too . the new in this project is the real time plot of the system response through matlab , which determine the stability state of system clearly .

Step 1: Mechanical Design of Beams and Frame

Description:

You will find autocad file for laser cutting edges for the beam design , also the frame dimensions and video that show the mechanical mechanism after assembling it .
