Digital control

Discrete control techniques appropriate to be implemented in modern microcontrollers, such as proportional-integral-derivative control (PID) and kalman filter (KF)

Optimum control

Control techniques that optimize a desired cost function, such as model predictive control (MPC), linear quadratic regulator (LQR) and linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG)

Robust control

Control techniques that deal with uncertainties in the model, such as H-infinity control (H∞) and sliding mode control (SMC)

Nonlinear control

Control techniques that deal with nonlinear systems, such as feedback linearization (FL), sliding mode control (SMC) and extended Kalman filter (EKF)

Automotive Control Systems

Control algorithms for ADAS systems, such as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS) and Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)

Control of Mechatronic Systems

Design, construction and control of mechatronic systems, focusing on didactic kits for validating advanced control strategies
