https://perinim.github.io/projects/rotary-pendulum-rl/

This is an open source project aimed at introducing people to robotics, from the hardware and embedded systems implementation to the software and control algorithms. The goal is to control a real life rotary pendulum to make it perform a swing-up and balance task.

The project is divided into four parts: hardware, firmware, simulation and control. The hardware part is responsible for the mechanical design and the electronic components. The firmware part is responsible for the embedded systems implementation. The simulation part is responsible for the simulation of the rotary pendulum in a virtual environment. The control part is responsible for the implementation of the control algorithms.
