It is a common situation in electronics to have a control loop, that is some sort of feedback that drives the input to a system such as a motor or a heater based upon a sensor to measure something ...
PID control has been in use for a long time in industry, but only for the past few years has it been introduced into environments such as Arduino, with rather concise libraries and no graphical aids.
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 ...
Do remember your first soldering iron? We do. It plugged into the wall, and had no way to adjust the temperature. Most people call these kind of irons “fire starters.” Not only are they potentially ...
Welcome! This project demonstrates how to use a PID controller to control an RL (Resistor–Inductor) circuit and a DC-Motor, with all simulation and visualization handled in Python. Demonstration of ...
Abstract: Obtaining an accurate mathematical model is critical in control design applications. Therefore, the parameter uncertainties that occur during modeling or operation should be identified, and ...
This year I am helping us laugh and possibly learn by making one of my humorous books available to download for free in this year’s first six columns. The fourth book is Logical Thoughts at 4:00 am.
