Position Tracking Controllers for Two Wheeled Inverted Pendulum Robot

Abstract

: This paper present comparison between model based controller and nonmodel based controller in position tracking of a two wheeled inverted pendulum (TWIP). A Linear Quadratic Controller (LQR) which is a state feedback linear controller and fuzzy logic controller (FLC) which is non-model based intelligent controller are designed and simulated and the performances of the two controllers are compared. The FLC shows better performance than the LQR controller.
