Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A robotic arm is moving to grasp an object but starts to oscillate around the target location. How would you apply Derivative Control to stabilize its motion?

💡 Hint: Think about how adjusting quickly based on current speed can stabilize the position.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a controller for a drone that uses Derivative Control for altitude adjustments. Discuss the calculations you need to implement to ensure stability while flying.

💡 Hint: Consider factors like wind resistance and the drone's current position relative to the target height.
