This bachelor thesis is about the design and construction of a self-stabilizing platform. The purpose of this system is to balance objects placed upon the platform by keeping the platform level regardless of how the mechanism itself is rotated. Its uses include stabilization of sensors, cameras and vehicle cockpits. The prototype was constructed using 3D printing and basic machining. It uses two DC motors, an inertial measurement unit, an Arduino Uno microcontroller and a motor driver. The inertial measurement unit acts as an accelerometer and gyroscope, it measures the change in position and angle relative to its starting position. The controller algorithm processes the sensor signal and calculates an appropriate output signal. This output...
