The inverted pendulum is a classic problem in dynamics and control theory that is generally elaborated in high-school and undergraduate physics or math courses. Being a math and science enthusiast myself, I decided to try and implement the concepts that I learned during my classes to build an inverted pendulum. Applying such concepts in real life not only helps strengthen your understanding of the concepts but also exposes you to a whole new dimension of problems and challenges that deal with practicality and real-life situations that one can never encounter in theory classes.
In this instructable, I will firstly introduce the inverted pendulum problem, then cover the theory aspect of the problem, and then discuss the hardware and software required to bring this concept to life.
I suggest you watch the video that is attached above while going through the instructable which will give you a better understanding.
And finally, please don’t forget to drop a vote in the ‘Classroom Science Contest’ if you liked this project and feel free to leave any questions in the comment section below. Happy making! :) “
