Control of a Ball and Beam System using Fuzzy Logic Controller and Q Learning based Controller

This project was successfully executed and helped us understand concepts in control.

The ball and beam system constitutes a classic control system problem. In our project, we've developed two controllers to stabilize the system. The first one, a Fuzzy Logic controller has been developed with the help of Simulink and .fis file containing the details of the Fuzzy Inference System. The second controller has been designed using the Q-Learning algorithm, a concept in Reinforcement Learning. The algorithm is coded in a .m file and executed using MATLAB. The communication between the hardware and software takes place via Arduino-MATLAB and Arduino-Simulink interfacing. For more queries regarding the project, please send a mail to [e-mail]
