The Design of Two-Wheel Mobile Platform

Abstract

In this paper, we introduced some methods which are to resolve the problems to design and implement a self-balancing two-wheel mobile platform based on CompactRIO, two digital DC servo motors and other devices. And we also used LabVIEW to receive data to display the curve and to save data by Microsoft Excel for farther analyses. Using these methods, we have designed a two-wheel mobile platform to keep itself balancing in order to carry something from someplace to another in the future. An autonomous two-wheel mobile platform of this kind can only be obtained by the successful integration of mechanical hardware, electrical components and control software. The two-wheel mobile platform has been manufactured successfully by CIMS & Robotics Center of Shanghai University. The self-balancing control software and the relevant basic software have been developed.
