Control Systems
Control systems play a crucial role in robotics by managing device behavior through open-loop and closed-loop strategies. Closed-loop systems leverage feedback to enhance precision and accuracy, while PID control serves as a key feedback mechanism widely utilized in various robotic applications. Understanding PID parameters is essential for the development of stable and responsive robotic systems.

What we have learnt
- Control systems are fundamental in robotics for managing behavior.
- Feedback in closed-loop systems significantly improves accuracy.
- PID control effectively corrects deviations and predicts future errors.
Key Concepts
- -- Control System
- A system that manages, commands, directs, or regulates the behavior of other devices or systems.
- -- OpenLoop Control
- A control system that operates without feedback and does not adjust outputs based on performance.
- -- ClosedLoop Control
- A control system that uses feedback to adjust its outputs to maintain desired performance.
- -- Feedback
- The process of using information from the output of a system to make adjustments to the input.
- -- PID Control
- A control loop mechanism that uses Proportional, Integral, and Derivative parameters to control a system effectively.
- -- Proportional Component
- Part of PID control that adjusts the output proportionally to the current error.
- -- Integral Component
- Part of PID control that accumulates past errors to eliminate long-term offset.
- -- Derivative Component
- Part of PID control that predicts future errors based on the rate of change of the error.
