Overview

Lab at a glance

The Control Lab integrates software and hardware for modern control education and research. Analysis, design, system identification, and stability studies are carried out using MATLAB, LabVIEW, and Python, and validated on in-house table-top experiments: Wheeled Mobile Robots, Ball-on-Beam, Inverted Pendulum, and Magnetic Levitation.
