Ball And Plate Apparatus

Product Description

Ball And Plate Apparatus Description of Ball And Plate Apparatus The Ball and Plate Apparatus shows the problems of the of an unstable system. The apparatus consists of a plate pivoted at its centre so the plate can tilt in two directions.Stepper motors tilt the plate. A servo system with a stepper motor control card controls the motors. A camera with an intelligent vision system measures the ball position.The basic control task is to control the ball position. The ball is free to roll on the plate. The equipment includes of Ball And Plate Apparatus Ball and plate modelPower supplyA data acquisition board for your computerCamera with USB connectionThe data acquisition board fits into a suitable computer (not included) to link with the Ball and Plate Apparatus and control its motors. Software (included) Demonstration program with PID controllersInterface library for programming at the system level Experiments of Ball And Plate Apparatus Real-time digital image processingDigital PID controller design for ball position stabilisation and trajectory followingFuzzy controller designAdaptive controller designPath planning for moving the ball between obstacles Essential Services Electrical supply: 110/220/240 VAC, 50 W, 50/60 Hz, with earthSpecify your voltage on orderBench space needed: 0.6 m x 1000 mm Operating ConditionsOperating environment: LaboratoryStorage temperature range: 25C to +55C (when packed for transport)Operating temperature range: +5C to +40COperating relative humidity range: 80% at temperatures < 31C decreasing linearly to 50% at40C
