  • Abstract
    Design and principle of Mendocino motor. Speed of Mendocino motor is controlled via intensity of incident light. The halogen lights voltage is changed using PWM. A device called “Control unit” is designed to set the PWM, measure speed of Mendocino motor and communicate with computer. Software Matlab Simulink is used to create different approaches to control Mendocino motor, with using Matlab S-function as a bridge between Simulink and Control unit.
