A few weeks ago, I installed an automatic water heater switch to my bathroom, but it was a crude device. What I really want to do is design a universal heater driver. That basic idea can be adapted to ...

A comprehensive PID-based control system for balancing a car on a beam using Arduino, ultrasonic sensors, and servo motor actuation. This project demonstrates classical control theory principles ...

Welcome to the Autonomous Snow-Plow Project! This project is a fully autonomous snowplow robot capable of navigating within a predefined area, detecting and avoiding obstacles, and removing simulated ...

Stepper motors are a mainstay in precision control systems, valued for their simple open-loop operation and high torque at low speeds. Commonly found in CNC machines, 3D printers, and robotics, they ...

Abstract: The research proposes controlling DC motor angular speed using the Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller and hardware implementation using a microcontroller. The microcontroller ...

[Matt] wanted to have more control over his meat smoker so he built this advanced PID smoker controller. It uses the solid state relay seen in the bottom-right of this image to switch the smoker’s ...

Abstract: The article presents a new optimization algorithm called the hybrid MFO-WOA algorithm, which is designed to tackle global optimization problems and optimize FOPID/PID controller designs. The ...
