A Cat Video? Well, this makes sense if you read the previous post. One of the final graduate mechatronics project [by Hibbs and Jovanovic] was a tilt table that controlled the position of a ball. It can make the ball go to specific locations as well as trace out trajectories, in this case a rough figure 8. For these projects, we often want to show that the control system can correct for disturbances... and in this case, the disturbance is nicely injected by Jordan's cat!

It is challenging but interesting to track multiple functions and their outputs. On this video, I was testing the principle used mostly in System's Engineering, the EMERGENCE of new characteristics in a system. This was my concept design. It had data logger (SD Card), gps module, DC motors and drivers, servo, Cameras and LED, Ultrasonic sensor. I needed to get an arduino mega for this for more pins. Lesson learnt.🫡 Functional integration of codes and getting responses from different components, troubleshooting, diagnosis, getting consisent readings (not practically correct readings) and visual from camera was the goal and I achieved it. It's time I refine my scope.

Using the modularity of EMB, students can easily create spring-mass-damper plants and explore the response to various inputs, including sine sweep. Both, free and forced vibrations can be studied. A sine sweep input current (torque) is fed to the motor that drives the rack and pinion attachment, moving the cart. A spring is mounted to the cart and grounded to the base plate. No dashpot was added. As the sine frequency increases, the students can quickly identify the system natural frequency. The code was created with pysimCoder, including the real-time code that was deployed to the target. Hardware: - EMB-AM4 (Motor) - EMB-LM1 (Linear slide with encoder) - Spring with K=500 N/m - EMB Rack and Pinion Attachment - EMB-DAQ1 (Real-Time Target) - Maxon ESCON (Amplifier) - Power Supply Software: - pysimCoder - NuttX - RTScope (real-time plotting) #robotics #controlsystems #mechatronics #engineering #engineeringeducation

Have you ever been able to balance a pencil or some other thin rod perfectly on one end? What if I told you that I know how to program a servo motor to do this balancing act better than a human can? Over the fall semester I had the pleasure of participating in the ME355 Dynamic Systems Lab at Penn State Berks, a lab that applies the knowledge from the ME357 System Dynamics course to projects involving a Quanser servo motor setup and multiple attachments and tools. The lectures from the previous semester of ME357 covered tedious and unfamiliar topics like state space systems and PI controllers, and I honestly had put up a struggle to make sure I was actually awake and learning. Over the fall semester, however, using our book knowledge for these real-world projects started to pay off. To anyone, even a senior in engineering school like myself, a device that can do things like balance a rod can look like unexplained magic. The understanding of these amazing projects only comes after putting in tiring amounts of effort to understand the unfamiliar. Suddenly, you will find yourself able to explain and design things that you could originally only imagine.

In theory and during early engineering days, we were taught about vibration as a function of resonance, mass and other factors. Isolating vibration with dampers used to be a very common exam question. But with today's increasing use of infotainment in seating systems, newer forms and innovations to mitigate these vibrations can be applied. A mass inertial damper system that counters the vibration in opposing amplitude and frequency has to be very carefully designed.

I'd like to share my recent project for Automatic Control's course where I developed position control system for servo motor using PID. I used Arduino Uno, Servo Motor, Ultrasonic Sensor & Keypad. The controller worked on the difference between the measured distance using the ultrasonic sensor and the defined set distance using the keypad Here is the link to the Tinkercad simulation of my project. https://lnkd.in/dACYrav6
