Abstract
This article revisits the inverted pendulum-in particular, analyses a simplified model of a Segway, with a view to exploring its capabilities in Control Systems Engineering education. The integration between the theoretic and practical side is achieved through simulation, and in particular by using MathWorks software. We also present a structure for the work to be done in the Laboratory class and propose a solution for the problem.
