We were tasked with constructing and programming a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furuta_pendulum Furuta pendulum], the goal of which is to hold the vertical arm up through horizontal rotation of the horizontal arm connected to the motor shaft. Essentially, there were two separate projects: constructing the physical pendulum assembly, and programming the PIC to control the motor so the pendulum would function. |
