Welcome to the EE471 Inverted Pendulum Design Project Home Page. Take a look at What's New in our web.
Goal
To create an inverted pendulum with PID control.
The following is a list of recent additions to our web. Whenever we publish a paper, write a specification, submit a status report, or add anything else to our web, we'll put a notice here. Each item is linked to the page with the updated content.
