This project focus on designing and implementing a PID controller for a ball balancing system. The ball balancing system consists of 3 servo motors, joints that are connecting the motors to a plate, as well as a camera for visual feedback. The logical flow for the control of the system can be seen in second slide (Fig. 4.2).
