About
Truong Hung Pham is a robotics researcher whose work centers on the design, modeling, and control of dynamically stable mobile robots. His most cited contribution, "Design and Control of a Ball-balancing Robot" (2018, 3 citations), presents a novel ball-balancing platform with a hexagonal prism body driven by three DC motors and omni-wheels. Pham's key contribution lies in deriving the robot's equations of motion using the Lagrangian method and linearizing them to obtain a state-space model, which he then used to implement a Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) for stabilization. This work demonstrates a rigorous approach to balancing control, bridging theoretical dynamics with practical prototype development. While his citation count is modest, the research addresses fundamental challenges in underactuated system control and mobile robotics, offering a clear methodology for building and controlling ball-balancing robots. Pham's work is particularly valuable for students and researchers interested in hands-on robotics, control theory, and the application of Lagrangian mechanics to real-world systems.
