About

Phuoc Vinh Dang is a robotics researcher specializing in the design, modeling, and control of ball-balancing robots, with a particular focus on the BallBot platform. His work bridges theoretical mechanics and practical implementation, exploring how parametric configurations—such as body mass, chassis size, and ball diameter—fundamentally influence system performance and stability. Dang’s most cited paper, “Analysis of the parametric configuration impact on BallBot control performance” (2024), has garnered 8 citations, highlighting its relevance in optimizing robot dynamics for real-world applications. In his earlier foundational work, “Design and Control of a Ball-balancing Robot” (2018), he detailed the construction of a hexagonal prism robot actuated by three DC motors with omni-wheels, deriving equations of motion via the Lagrangian method and implementing a Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) for stabilization. This work, with 3 citations, demonstrates his hands-on approach to prototyping and control. Dang’s contributions are significant for advancing agile, omnidirectional mobile robots used in education, research, and service robotics, offering a systematic framework for tuning mechanical parameters to enhance balance and maneuverability.
