Project 9a: PID Controller
Note:
This project’s realization will depend
on the results from the Sensors, System Modeling and Embedded projects.
As
a proof-of-concept level development, students may take inputs from
various sensors and establish various “navigator” programs, such as
speed, direction and obstacle avoidance.
The students will have to acquire the
information from the sensors (ADC conversion, digital communication,
etc), process the information (embedded calculations, appropriate
formulas) to give desired speed and direction.
