        Mathematical modelling of a real-world, dynamical system (balanced aeropendulum) and actuators. From moment balances, to differential equations, to transfer functions, and more! Includes practical aspects with regards to control system design, such as sensor and DAC models.<br><br>

This series covers all aspects of control system design, all the way from theory to the final, real-world implementation. This includes: mathematical modelling of dynamic systems, parameter estimation, theoretical controller design with practical considerations, simulation in software (Matlab and custom simulator written in Unity), and implementation in the real world (mechanical, electrical, and software).
