Competition of two-wheel inverted pendulum type robot vehicle on MCR course

Abstract

This paper proposes a competition of inverted pendulum type two-wheeled robot vehicle on MCR (Micom car rally) course. The control theory of inverted pendulum type vehicle is already established. But the control technology used in this system is not commonly in education among undergraduate students of university. The proposed competition will be done by using commercially developed small and low cost robotic vehicles, and is expecting to bring highly educated engineers.
