Model Predictive Control (MPC) has gained a lot of popularity over the last 15 years and for a good reason – it works well with relatively little design effort. MPC was originally developed for the process control industry. So it only made sense to test...
The QUBE-Servo 2 is supplied with two modules: the inertia disc and the pendulum. In my previous blog posts, I went through the various DC motor-based labs that use the disc module. Here I discuss the labs supplied with the...
Today, most control systems are being implemented on digital computers, using either a PC/laptop or a microprocessor unit (MCU) like Raspberry Pi or Arduino. Gone are the days of implementing your PID on an analog circuit. However, controllers implemented on...
A few weeks ago, we released a major update of the curriculum developed for one of our most popular products, QUBE-Servo 2. Adding new and expanding already covered concepts, we more than doubled the number of lab experiments in the...
In my previous blog post, I walked you through the new and expanded curriculum for our popular QUBE-Servo 2 system. I also highlighted the institutions and educators whose input and feedback helped us bring in new topics and develop new...
