INVERTED PENDULUM ON A CART SENIOR DESIGN PROJECT REPORT

Abstract

The purpose of this project is to design and build an inverted pendulum system from an existing nonworking inverted pendulum system for the Engineering and Technology Department. Once completed, this system will be used for educational purposes for future students to observe code, understand the design, and study the physics of the system. We have tested our system numerous times with a variety of different device configurations so as to perfect the system. We have clearly labeled and documented everything, which will help when students are working on the system in the future. This document contains but is not limited to the information for our scope, design decisions, schematics, design blocks, bill of materials, and code. This was designed to show the finalized overview of our systems and what we presented at the end of the semester.
