Project 4: Emulating Human Reasoning for Decision Making

AC: Dr. Kelly CohenSAC: Dr. Jeff KastnerGRA: Mr. Wei Wei

Team Members:Adam KatterheinrichNicholas NielsenTyler Parcell

Learn Fuzzy Logic (MATLAB Fuzzy Logic Toolbox) Model and control an inverted pendulum Use the pendulum controller to develop a fuzzy logic

controller for a multi-rotor Learn how to effectively compile a technical paper,

poster and presentation Develop team collaboration Learn the basics behind technical research

Project Goals

Begin with a Fuzzy Logic crash course Develop a model for an upside down pendulum system Create a Fuzzy controller to interact with the

pendulum model Simulate Fuzzy controller with quadrotor dynamic

model Assemble and test a hex-rotor craft(time permitted) Produce a full technical paper outlining the fuzzy logic

controller system model

Tasks

Week 1: Fuzzy logic crash course using Matlab, flight training

Week 2: Literature and math review, building pendulum model, flight training

Week 3: Developing pendulum controller model Week 4: Developing multi-rotor controller

model Week 5: Developing multi-rotor controller

model Week 6: Simulated testing Week 7: Testing and Final report preparation Week 8: Final Presentation, poster and

technical paper
