Safe Manual Control of the Furuta Pendulum

Author

Summary, in English

This paper deals with the manual control of unstable systems, subject to control signal saturation. In particular we consider the Furuta pendulum, where the problem is to control the orientation of the arm manually while stabilizing the inverted pendulum. This paper presents an analysis which leads to an insight into the problem as well as the control strategy. This control strategy has been implemented on the real Furuta pendulum. Aspects of the implementation as well as experimental results are discussed
