A Robotic Ball Balancing Beam

نویسنده

  • Jeff Lieberman
چکیده

I designed a beam to balance and move a chrome steel 1.25” diameter ball, to a desired position/waveform through time, stably and with high performance behavior. I tested the ball to make sure it could retain its central position, as well as following different frequency sine and square waves of desired position, with or without human disturbances, and it succeeds in these tasks, up to a sine wave frequency of roughly 0.5 Hertz [at an amplitude of roughly 80% of the overall system travel], at which point the linearization of the system model breaks down and the mechanical system becomes unstable.

Fuzzy logic controller and real-time implementation of a ball balancing beam

A ball balancing beam is a nonlinear dynamic system which is quite di cult to control using conventional methods since some special mathematical techniques and control theory knowledge are required to derive the equations. There are di cult issues in this system: it has delayed feedback associated with control actions; and the \jumping ball" phenomenon brings sensor uncertainty. Balancing is es...

Fuzzy PD Cascade Controller Design for Ball and Beam System Based on an Improved ARO Technique

The ball and beam system is one of the most popular laboratory setups for control education. In this paper, we design a fuzzy PD cascade controller for a ball and beam system using Asexual Reproduction Optimization (ARO) technique. The ball & beam system consists of a servo motor, a grooved beam, and a rolling ball. This system utilizes a servo motor to control ball’s position on the beam. Chan...

Fuzzy-Neural Controller and Real-Time Implementation of A Ball Balancing Beam

Nonlinear dynamic ball balancing beam has been successfully controlled by applying conventional methods, neural networks, and fuzzy logic respectively. Conventional methods necessitate strong mathematical and control background to derive equations. Neural networks learn to balance a ball, but the ball never settles down due to the fact that \discrete resolution of the boxes representation" was ...
