AbstractThe difficulty in design a ball-riding robot is to make a statically unstable system to be dynamically stable. This research involves the control algorithms of a Ballbot based on using 3-perpendicular-wheel drive concept. A PID controller is designed and tested in both simulation and the real Ballbot to observe the dynamics of the system. In the later chapters, both simulation and real hardware experiments will be conducted and discussed. The simulation is conducted in Matlab Simulink program.
