Balancing Control With Neuro-Fuzzy Approach For Electrical Cart-Seesaw System

The objectives of the research are to exploit a novel cart-seesaw laboratory apparatus which is driven by servo motors and gear transmission, and develop balancing approach for such system. In order to stabilize the system, the two controls approaches are implemented as examples of how the system can be used to demonstrate controls concepts. Experimental results indicate that utilizing the proposed novel cart-seesaw system play a superior performance than the existed pneumatic type in balancing and tracking operation. Moreover, the proposed control methodology significantly signifying the usefulness of the fuzzy controller in suppressing the seesaw tilt angle in the time domain. The development the proposed software/hardware platform can be beneficial for standardizing laboratory equipment, and the development of amusement apparatus.
