Optimal Control and Trajectory Tracking for the Ballbot (Nagarajan et al. 2014)

Trajectory Tracking for the Ballbot using Optimal Control

Course Project for 16748: Underactuated Robotics at CMU

Tested using MATLAB R2018a 64-bit

For the planar model which plans in one dimension only, run openloop_trajplan.m in planar folder

For the 3D model which plans trajectory in both X and Y dimensions, run openloop_trajplan3D.m in 3d folder
