Self-erecting Inverted pendulum, PC controlled

[SuperSmartypie]

hi can you tell me the details of this project as i am a student of 3rd year telecommunication engineering student but i am interested in making a project on control engineering....

[maheshkuruganti]

Can you tell me the Motor Specs ?

[AyumiHK]

ur inverted pendulum is so COOL!

[allah69]

What are you using for the feedback? A shaft encoder?

[jose66595]

• I would buy you a prototype rotary inverted pendulum because I need to finish my studies because I am developing an advanced controller, I want to apply the rotary inverted pendulum that you designed,that is amazing. this is email josecanizalezu@hotmail.com, I hope you all information to contact you I'm from Venezuela, I hope all your support and send me everything by email. Thank you.

anyone know the name of the song?

[orlandothx]

this is beauty... thousends of calculations... to reach the perfection of equilibrium. Wonderful. Human s great.. isn't?

[TheMeansardine]

wow thats gotta be fun to tinker with :D

[super6plx]

I like that these videos usually don't have any thumbs down, they get the rating that they deserve

hahaha dude that bird just brought back some old memories, i haven't seen that shit in years!

[jpap967]

Very nice ouch with the balancing bird toy lol, haven't seen one of those in ages!

[Doublehp]

so nice :)

hi, did you build this for some kinda of design project? i was thinking of proposing something like this for my senior design in EE but not sure if it is difficult enough for senior design.

it says erecting!:Ohaha

[GregorCampbell95]

haha! it says erecting!:O

[Gotmilk0112]

fucking epic!

[Vizzerdrikz]

It's very romantic

[fairno2]

COOL! is there anything like this i can buy to stare at in my house?!

[utp2able]

I like the music... what is that?

[Fallenpollas]

Awesome

[ostrorawr]

I felt kind of bad for the machine, getting poked by a human when all it wants is to balance its damn pendulum...

[abSURDub]

if you could make a cheap (>£50) slightly smaller one thats like the ultimate desktop toy

[Dreamsigner]

Thanks!

[mariobaccio]

Nice Job!!!

[Dreamsigner]

Thank you, I love this kind of stuff, control stuff.

[Exerciso]

what kind of motion sensor did you use? i.e. accelerometer, etc.

[Dreamsigner]

Encoder pulse sensor & Servo Motor

@Dreamsigner

Hii,, i've a question, on the pendulum did you use a Gray code encoder ? and a multiturn potentiometer wan't good ? or you used the encoder to avoid an A/D converter ?
