In this webinar, Prof. Brian Armstrong from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) will discuss how they used the Quanser Rotary Servo in their control systems laboratory to teach progressively more detailed system identification, modeling, and controls design techniques. The activities conclude with a unique competitive motion tracking challenge. Prof. Armstrong will describe how they modified the Rotary Servo hardware for this motion tracking experiment, its motivation, and how the suppression of an accidental sliding mode was discovered.
