Abstract:
This project presents a development of self-balancing platform mechanism using ATMEGA microcontroller. The platform has been designed using Stabilizing mechanism including Inertial measurement unit (IMU) and two servo, and controlled by an open source microcontroller. In this project the ATMEGA-328 microcontroller, servos, and a three-degree of freedom (axis) accelerometer have been used to create the controlled platform. The controller has been designed to maintain the platform at an initially selected angle when the support structure orientation changes. The software has been written with logic to convert the digital data with the help of MPU6050 . The magnitude is then compared to a predetermined. Mathematical function to infer the angle of tilt of the platform. The angle of tilt is then converted to angle of rotation for the servos to act on.
