Mechatronics Control Kit
The Mechatronics Control Kit – A complete Controls Lab in a
Single Package.
Designed by Dan Block & Professor Mark W. Spong Professor of Electrical
Engineering and Control Theory (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign)
Challenges
Four independent challenges provided in one Standalone Package:
- DC
motor control experiments
- P and PI speed regulation
- P, PD, PID and Lead angular position regulation.
- Reaction Wheel
Inverted Pendulum experiment
- P and PD control of the Pendulum in the stable equilibrium position
- PD with added set point correction control in the inverted unstable
equilibrium position.
- Full State feedback control in the inverted unstable equilibrium
position.
- Swing Up control algorithms to move the pendulum from the stable
equilibrium to the unstable equilibrium
- Pendubot inverted pendulum
experiment.
- Full State feedback control at multiple equilibrium positions.
- Swing Up and balance control to the inverted equilibrium positions
- Rotary
inverted pendulum (Furuta) experiment
- Full State feedback control at multiple equilibrium positions.
- Swing Up and balance control to the inverted equilibrium positions
Description
The Mechatronics Control Kit is ideal for education and research in
real time control. The Kit is a standalone package that required
no external accessories.
The "Mechatronics Control Kit" consists of a 24 VDC motor,
Texas Instruments DSP board, PWM and optical encoders mounted on a
portable base. The four attachments can be mounted independently providing
a very effective, portable and challenging teaching aid.
