Mechatronics Engineering Final Year Topic: Design and Evaluation of Self-Balancing Robot Parameter Study

This Mechatronics Engineering final year project examines examining stability of a fictional two-wheel balancing model, linking mechanical behaviour, sensing and control through a bounded prototype or reproducible simulation.

Why choose this project topic?

The project addresses examining stability of a fictional two-wheel balancing model, making the interaction between mechanism, sensor and controller visible. Comparing tilt error, recovery region and control saturation gives a student a useful basis for design decisions, demonstrations and a critical discussion of where the integrated system can fail.

How do the selected sensing, actuation or control choices affect tilt error, recovery region and control saturation when examining stability of a fictional two-wheel balancing model?

Select an available approved trainer or fictional model, then agree the mechanism, control range and evaluation protocol for examining stability of a fictional two-wheel balancing model.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Specify the mechanism, interfaces and operating limits required for examining stability of a fictional two-wheel balancing model.
  2. 02Use documented equations, compare estimated mass and sensor delay and evaluate recovery within bounded initial disturbances.
  3. 03Evaluate tilt error, recovery region and control saturation and document failure cases and uncertainty.

A suggested research approach

Use documented equations, compare estimated mass and sensor delay and evaluate recovery within bounded initial disturbances. Obtain approval for any physical rig and keep testing supervised and within low-energy limits. Record the mechanical and software configuration, compare tilt error, recovery region and control saturation against a stated reference, and distinguish demonstration success from validated field reliability.

What you will need

  • Robot dynamics model
  • Control simulation tool
  • Parameter uncertainty scenarios

Keep your project scope clear

No rideable platform is proposed and simulated balance does not certify physical safety.
