Abstract :
In this paper, we develop a control strategy that allows to balance an inverted pendulum, using a quad-rotor as controller device. The pendulum is supported through a spherical link at the top of the quad-rotor. The feasibility of this experiment is due to the great flexibility of the quad-rotor reaction, having a wide and rich dynamic range. The ultimate aim of this work is that the procedure can be used in scenarios such as those arising in collaborative work environments.
