Projects in Automatic Control 2021
(2022)Department of Automatic Control
- Abstract
- The Department of Automatic Control at Lund University annually gives a project course in Automatic Control (FRTN40). The course is given at the advanced level (7.5 ECTS credits), and the students work in small teams to achieve a common goal. The projects typically involve a real-world estimation or control problem with relevance to industrial or other applications. In this course, the students get an opportunity to explore implementational aspects of concepts they have learned in previous control systems courses. With a faculty member or doctoral student as an advisor, the groups independently formulate an objective and an associate time plan. Subsequent activities typically involve modelling, controller design, implementation,... (More)
- The Department of Automatic Control at Lund University annually gives a project course in Automatic Control (FRTN40). The course is given at the advanced level (7.5 ECTS credits), and the students work in small teams to achieve a common goal. The projects typically involve a real-world estimation or control problem with relevance to industrial or other applications. In this course, the students get an opportunity to explore implementational aspects of concepts they have learned in previous control systems courses. With a faculty member or doctoral student as an advisor, the groups independently formulate an objective and an associate time plan. Subsequent activities typically involve modelling, controller design, implementation, documentation, and verification. The students present their work through two feedback seminars, an oral presentation, a demonstration session, and a written report. The reports of the 2021 edition of the course are presented in this booklet.
This year, the cohort consisted of 23 students, working in teams of 2-5 persons. The course included 6 projects; Panda robot, Crazyflie quadrotor, Slimdog car, Bluelining robot, Brain computing interface, and Ball balancing robot. Every single group managed to perform successful and satisfactory real-time experiments to generate the final experimental results ready in time for the demonstration in January.
Doctoral students Martin Gemborn-Nilsson, Julian Salt, Zheng Jia have served the course as project advisors, together with support from guest Tihomir Zilic and Professor Anders Robertsson. We would also like to thank our research engineers Leif Andersson, Anders Blomdell and Anders Nilsson who have supported the groups throughout their projects. Finally, we would like to thank Mika Nishimura for her help with student registration and related matters.
