Theory

In this video, we introduce an example system to control: an inverted pendulum on a cart. We describe the state-space, find the fixed points, and simulate the system in Matlab. Because the linearized system is controllable, we will be able to arbitrarily place the eigenvalues of the closed-loop system through feedback in the next two videos.
