A demonstration of a ball-and-plate PID controller using an Arduino Uno to control a 6 DOF Stewart platform.

This is a semester project in mechatronic control systems at SJSU. The 6 DOF platform is a proof-of-concept prototype that we created for our senior project (motion simulator). Here, we are using 2 axes of the platform as the output from a PID controller that uses a resistive touch panel mounted on the platform as input. All processing is being done on an Arduino Uno that is controlling 6 R/C servo motors. For more information about this project or our senior project, please visit our webpage at fullmotiondynamics.com Here's a video of some testing for the motion simulator: youtube.com/watch?v=gYqkyPAtNKY
