Using Educational Robotics to Teach Fundamental Feedback Control Concepts
摘要
This work examines the role of educational robotics towards teaching high-school children basic automatic control concepts including feedback, the structure and the differences between open- and closed-loop control systems, the basic elements of a closed-loop system, the effect of external disturbances, the tracking error, as well as practical issues concerning control hardware implementation. The ideas are exemplified with hands-on exercises and experiences from a STEM summer school based on educational robotics.
