Designing, building and controlling a mobile robot that balances on a ball

---

There are numerous balancing robots that apply modern control theory these days. The control is applied only to achieve a single objective which is a balance system. This thesis is written to find out how movement can be applied while the robot maintains its balance. In order to achieve this purpose a balancing robot is designed to balance on a ball. This allows the robot to carry out omni-directional movement.rnBefore the robot can move it must be able to balance its own body. The balancing act is done by moving the ball back, forth, left and right accordingly. Two electric motors are attached perpendicularly to each other for controlling the movement of the ball.rnSensors such as Accelerometer, Rotary Encoder and Gyroscope are used to provide feedback to the controller. A wireless remote controller is introduced to control the robot from afar.
