AbstractIn this project a two wheeled self-balancing robot was designed. First a model1 was developed to test algorithms and a model2 two was developed enhancing model1 experiences. The two wheels of the robot is able to rotate independently. This will be controlled by a microcontroller with the feedback from sensors (an IMU unit containing both accelerometer and gyroscope) which will go through the ADC converter in the on board microcontroller bypassed through a Filter.in this case the model1 was developed using the complementary filter and model2 was developed using the kalman filter. The Filtered data will be processed by the microcontroller and it actuates the two DC motors on two wheels. In this project the elements of control theory is brought forward and what we learned is tested practically. The main aim is to implement a PID controller in order to make the system sufficient enough to control the balancing.
