AbstractReaction wheel inverted pendulum can be classified as an under actuated mechanical system which can be used to test the control strategies of unbalanced systems. This stick robot which is developed here combines two reaction wheel inverted pendulums to balance the robot in an upright position. The mathematical model for the system is derived using Lagrangian method and then simulation and actual testing is done to balance the robot using PID and LQR controllers.
