PID control is a commonly used control algorithm. Elektor's new book is an excellent resource for anyone looking to use a Raspberry Pi 4 or an Arduino Uno in PID-based automatic control applications.

A few weeks ago, I installed an automatic water heater switch to my bathroom, but it was a crude device. What I really want to do is design a universal heater driver. That basic idea can be adapted to ...

What Are PID Controllers? PID control is the most commonly used control algorithm, used extensively in industrial, process, and commercial applications and has been universally accepted as the easiest ...

This project focuses on PID-position-control experiments with Arduino. The HTML/JavaScript-based GUI enables easy optimization of the parameters. Since there are many articles on the internet about ...

This project implements closed-loop position control of a Pololu 70:1 metal gearmotor (4754) using an Arduino UNO R4 WiFi and a Pololu Dual G2 High-Power Motor Shield 24v14 (M1). A panel rotary ...

The front circuit board is the meat and potatoes of the device. It hosts the user interface in the form of buttons, LEDs, and a graphic LCD screen. You can also see the USB mini-b connector which ...

[Jason] learned a lot by successfully automating this meat smoker. This is just the first step in [Jason’s] smoker project. He decided to begin by hacking a cheaper charcoal-fed unit first, before ...

Intro:For 3D pinting, different filament (ABS, PLA etc) requires a suprising accurate temperature for extrusion to get the best results. Then, even using a specific type, different colours may work ...
