It’s always nice to simulate a project before soldering a board together. Tools like QUCS run locally and work quite well for ...

Here is the controller I designed for my 3D printed animatronic eye mechanisms. The main advantage it has over a traditional gaming controller is the ability to fine-tune a value (such as the openness ...

Wind turbine control systems have evolved significantly over the past decades, moving from simple classical controllers to sophisticated artificial intelligence-based strategies. Early utility-scale ...

This is a complete autonomous flight control system built on Arduino Uno that processes IMU data at 250Hz, fuses sensor data using a complementary filter, and implements PID control to stabilize the ...

In a deal that surprised some industry observers, chipmaker Qualcomm has agreed to buy Arduino, which is best known for supplying microcontrollers to the DIY community. The acquisition, whose terms ...

This year I am helping us laugh and possibly learn by making one of my humorous books available to download for free in this year’s first six columns. The fourth book is Logical Thoughts at 4:00 am.

You’ll learn about instrumentation and valves. The article identifies the importance of positioners in fast loops. How first-principle dynamic simulations provide insights into compressor surge, ...

Learn how to easily adjust the contrast of a 1602 LCD display using Arduino. In this quick tutorial, I’ll show you a simple trick to control the contrast electronically, without relying solely on the ...

Abstract: Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers play a crucial role in the aerospace industry, ensuring the safety, precision and reliability of various systems. These controllers ...

Some wonder if AI will replace PID control loops. The reality is that, instead of replacing PID, AI is stepping in to help keep things running smoothly without upending regulatory trust. Think of AI ...
