Self-erecting Inverted pendulum, PC controlled

An inverted pendulum is a pendulum which has its mass above its pivot point. It is often implemented with the pivot point mounted on a cart that can move horizontally and may be called a cart and pole. Whereas a normal pendulum is stable when hanging downwards, an inverted pendulum is inherently unstable, and must be actively balanced in order to remain upright, either by applying a torque at the pivot point or by moving the pivot point horizontally as part of a feedback system. This is a kind Self-erecting

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

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 ?

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 ?

[AyumiHK]

ur inverted pendulum is so COOL!

[allah69]

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

• 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?

wow thats gotta be fun to tinker with :D
