AbstractIn this thesis we present the design, construction, implementation, simulation, and control of a three degree of freedom hovering device capable of motion in the roll, pitch, and yaw directions. This device provides the opp01tunity for exploration of a variety of research related to dynamic systems. We first describe the design of the system. Design procedures are outlined along with details of the construction of the device. An identification of the system is presented for a Pitch Roll and yaw subsystem, and the corresponding results of the model are employed in the implementation of control algorithms. The electronic hardware detailed consists of a PC data acquisition system and PWM signal amplifiers, computer software supplying a real time software for control and data acquisition. Results of position control, baseline control, and trajectory control are presented and analyzed. All of classical control, PID results are compared with Optimal Control, LQR+Kalman filter solution.
