Quanser Double Inverted Rotary Pendulum

Quanser Double Inverted Rotary Pendulum

Double Inverted Rotary Pendulum is an extended version of a single pendulum. This additional module can be mounted on the Rotary Servo Base Unit. It isequipped with 2 pendulums mounted on a swivel axis and 2 encoders. Students model this object mathematically, and then design algorithms necessary to control it: stabilization and swing-up. 

The kit includes all elements needed to quickly start the station: amplifier, controller, Matlab or LabVIEW module as well as educational materials for students.
