Description

Control engineering is concerned with the task of deliberately influencing time-varying processes so that they behave in a desired manner. It is a hidden technology that often goes unnoticed in everyday life, yet it forms the foundation for many technical challenges we are all familiar with—such as cruise control in cars, regulating room temperature via heating systems, controlling a drone, the spin cycle of a washing machine, and even the trajectory control of a rocket.

At the Institute of Control and Systems Theory, you can experiment with a variety of hands-on control engineering systems:
- Test your skills by balancing a stick and compare them with an automated controller!
- Design your own fan controller to make a ball float!
- Set up an obstacle course for our mobile robot to navigate!

Develop a feel for the methods of control engineering through visually engaging experiments – interactive, exciting, and easy to understand.
