Design and Implementation of a Two-Wheeled Self-Balancing Car Using a Fuzzy Kalman Filter

Abstract

To improve the upright balancing performance of the two-wheeled self-balancing car, this paper proposes an attitude estimation algorithm based on fuzzy Kalman filtering. Fuzzy logic is used to correct the inclination angle and angular velocity of the two-wheeled self-balancing car, thereby optimizing the state of the Kalman filter and ultimately improving the balancing performance of the car. This paper combines dual closed-loop PID control with the complementary filtering algorithm, Kalman filtering algorithm, and fuzzy Kalman filtering algorithm to conduct experiments on a physical two-wheeled self-balancing car. The experimental results validate the superiority of the fuzzy Kalman filtering algorithm proposed in this paper for improving the upright balancing performance of the two-wheeled self-balancing car.
