In FTCLib, there are controllers that can improve the motion of mechanisms in FTC. This includes PID control and feedforward control. For information on the theory behind PID control, we recommend reading this page in gm0.

PID is a form of a feedback control loop, or closed loop control. This means that data about the variable you are controlling is required in order for the loop to control that variable. In this case, information about the error of the system is required to control the system with a PID controller.

This video teaches how to implement a basic PID controller for FTC. In a future video we will provide more intuition and theory behind why the PID controller is so effective. For those who...

The way to do this within in FTC is the PID Control Loop, standing for Proportional, Derivative, and Integral. In simpler terms the PID converts the inputs you receive from your sensors into powers for the motors which control your mechanism.

PID control is one of the most common control systems you will see in robotics, and FTC specifically. Three values need to be tuned (Proportional, Integral and Derivative) which alter the behavior of the controller.

What is a PID Controller? What do the constants "Kp, Ki, and Kd" do? Pseudocode Implementation of PID

The REV Robotics Control Hub and REV Robotics Expansion Hub allow a user to change the PID coefficients used for closed loop motor control. The PID coefficients are channel and mode specific. The following op mode uses an extended or enhanced DcMotor class (called “DcMotorEx”) to change the PID coefficients for the RUN_USING_ENCODER mode ...

FTC Blocks development tool modified to include PIDF programming blocks. Deprecated older PID-related methods and variables. REV's 1.8.x PIDF-related changes provide a more linear and accurate way to control a motor.

2024年11月17日 · Master the implementation of PID controller for linear actuators with our step-by-step guide. Understand PID, tuning, and real-world scenarios.

With PID library code, you can distribute power between the wheels to make sure it's travelling straight and more. My team is planning to use 2 or 4 motors for our drive train and 2 for our pulley system. I'd like to use PID to make sure they're both working at the same speeds, etc.
