AbstractThe inverted pendulum is a unique and intriguing concept that arouses the curiosity of numer- ous researches as it exhibits an unstable nature. With the rapid advancement in technology it is not surprising that there has been the surge of interest in the mobile inverted pendulum robot from control system researchers globally. With global attention there is no better time for development and improvement within this branch of mobility. This report presents the development and control of a two-wheeled balancing robot based on the inverted pendulum concept with an arm. The robot, capable of moving forwards and backwards, is remote con- trolled which allows the user to control the arm at will. The mobile structure is capable of picking and placing objects within reach of the arm, which is a one-degree of freedom arm with an end effector. Using data through Digital Motion Processor (DMP) fusion and a PID controller the robot is designed to remain upright with high stability.
