Linear Flexible Joint with Inverted Pendulum
The linear flexible inverted pendulum challenges students to gain advanced modeling and control experience by controlling both the damping of a flexible link, and an unstable inverted pendulum.
The Seesaw module is ideal to introduce intermediate control concepts, involving dynamics and control similar to the inverted pendulum experiment. You can use it to demonstrate real-world control challenges related, for example, to the roll control in aircraft.
The Seesaw module consists of two long arms hinged onto a support fulcrum. The system is composed of precisely machined polycarbonate with a durable matte finish. The Seesaw rotates about the pivot axis on an instrumented fulcrum. The rotation axis is coupled to an encoder through a pinion-and-anti-backlash-gear system and is used to measure the Seesaw tilt angle.
