Meltran V, a new biped robot with telescopic legs, is introduced. For 3D walking control of the robot we analyze the dynamics of a three-dimensional inverted pendulum in which motion is constrained to move along an arbitrarily de ned plane. From this analysis we obtain simple linear dynamics, the ThreeDimensional Linear Inverted Pendulum Mode (3DLIPM). Using a real-time control method based on ...

There are many different techniques for the measurement and control of dynamic real-world systems. The traditional approach to motor control problems is to find angular position/velocity with one or more rotary encoders. This information is then typical fed into a control algorithm to administer negative feedback on the observed state. In applications where encoders are not feasible, other tech...

A device laboratory was designed to create a commanded disturbance to the Furuta inverted pendulum. This pendulum was modified by adding a second inverted pendulum coupled to the main one by means of a semi-rigid spring. The induced motion on the second inverted pendulum causes displacement of the center of mass of the system, producing a kind of perturbation similar to that presented on mobile...

This paper proposes an adaptive wireless-network-induced delay compensation technique for Wireless Sensor and Actuator Network (WSAN). It is well known that network delays and packet losses over wireless network incur a great challenge over performance as well as stability of WSAN-based control systems. This paper presents a time-varying delay compensator exploiting Adaptive Smith Predictor wit...

Inverted pendulum is a non-linear, multivariable and unstable device, a model predictive control (MPC) performance evaluation and tuning method for inverted pendulum device is proposed. MPC was designed to control the inverted pendulum device, and the minimum variance covariance constrained control (MVC) was applied to evaluate the performance of the MPC controller and tune its parameters. The ...

In this paper, is used the Lagrangian classical mechanics for modeling the dynamics of an underactuated system, specifically a rotary inverted pendulum that will have two equations of motion. A basic design of the system is proposed in SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD software, which based on the material and dimensions of the model provides some physical variables necessary for modeling. In order to verify t...

In this paper a new kind of hopping robot has been designed which uses inverse pendulum dynamics to induce bipedal hopping gaits. Its mechanical structure consists of a rigid inverted T-shape mounted on four compliant feet. An upright “T” structure is connected to this by a rotary joint. The horizontal beam of the upright “T” is connected to the vertical beam by a second rotary joint. Using thi...

Inverted pendulum control is one of the fundamental problems in the field of control theory especially in the control of a walking robot. This paper describes the steps to design various controllers for a rotary motion inverted pendulum which was operated by a rotary servo plant, SRV 02 Series. The paper then compares the classical and modern control techniques used to design the control system...
