Abstract | Cubic robot is a small little cube which could be balanced around its corners, similar to an inverted pendulum. This thesis concerns about how to design and to control motions of a cubic robot around its corners. Firstly a mechanical system is designed, developed and implemented. Secondly, all the circuits are designed and build to interfacing between system and microcontroller. Then IMU is calibrated to keep track of the angles and rate of change of angles around an edge of the cubic robot. Thirdly design the control algorithm to balance the cubic robot around its corners. LQR method is used in this thesis |
