God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4)[4] 📚 🔴 Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus. 🔵 Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him.

Did you try reading a couple of distance measurments and f.ex averaging the result? Might be able to smooth out the noise from the sensor

[@featherbrain7147]

I like the fact your code does not use a library, so the computation is easily visible.

[@uatiger1]

Very Thankful to you brother. I am an Electrical Engineering graduate and I have studied Control Systems extensively in my degree. I studied the mathematics of PID controllers in excruciating detail. And never fully understood it and could never apply it in practice until I watched this video of yours. Hats off man.

[@cuturbs]

I usually don't leave a comment on videos, but man, this one is gold. I'm an almost graduaded eletrical engineer and I took control classes. They were full of math and theory and lacked pratical exemples and your explanation is flawless. Just earned a new subscriber. Keep up this excelent work!

[@bogdanmarinescu78]

I've read quite a few PID tutorials in the past and they helped me understand how PID works, but this is still by far the best explanation of PID that I've ever seen, and now I understand PID even better. Thanks and keep up the good work!

[@final0915]

it’s 2:39am in the UK and I need to get up at 6:30am. This has made my day already! thank you so much for putting this together.

[@WillHenson2009]

One of the best practical demonstrations of PID I've ever seen, fantastic!

[@miiroderrick8821]

Was researching about PID temperature controller, I found my self on your video, then I wanted to get more explanation on PID control systems, KZbin brought me here surprised you're the same person to offer both my interests and I don't need any extra video. Honestly, you're the best I have ever seen in electronics. Thanks for the simple and creative illustrations.

[@clairecelestin8437]

Seeing the behavior of each component in a real system made it absolutely clear what each expression does, and how they work together to hold the system at a specific value. This was a really great demonstration.

[@ranashreyas]

This was such an amazing explanation, mostly because you used a physical model and tested it; no other tutorial has actually implemented it. Thank you!

[@mibrahim4245]

if you explain it simply, you understand it !! YOU'RE AWESOME explaining the PID parts .. - Mechatronics engineer

[@defenestrated23]

[@johnschmidt874]

I think it's the best explanations of PID control concept i've ever had. It didn't dive into mathematical model, but it gave concept of how PID works. It's good if you make another video on how to apply filters on the system. Thanks for making this awesome video mate. Edit: you've got a new subscriber here.

[@Evgen-Evgen-Evgen]

Yeah

[@MrScorpnok]

This controller uses the ideal formula for D i think. If the setpoint is changed from a value to another (or the measured value...)in this case if the ball is moved from one point to another, the difference between measure and setpoint will instantly change and so the D will jump up to infinite for a moment (error-previousError/TIME)... In reality a filtration constant is needed. The shaking in this is probably is due to te inaccuracy of the measuring device (the measurement value jumps in steps instead of smooth rise/lowering) for that you'll need the filtration timeconstant, which will limit the jump of the D-control. Don't really know how to explain better without bringing laplace-functions to the table... Laplace functions are imo the easiest way to show the principle but i'd have to explain how they work...

[@MrScorpnok]

So, lets assume the system in this video checks the balls position every 1 ms and the accuracy of the measurement is 5mm. If the ball moves really slow, lets say it is 20mm away... it can move a few mm (to 22mm) before the measurement device reacts, and when it reacts (at 23mm), it'll think it has moved to 25mm. Now that the last measurement before the change was 1ms ago, the derivate part calculates 5mm/1ms, even tho the ball would be just barely rolling. The speed calculated with these values ends up being 5m/s. This makes the excessive back-n-forth movement. I think you might have already figured out why the filtration is needed but anyways... I was bored so I explained anyways :D also this didn't help at all with what you were asking which was HOW to make the filtration XD

[@MrScorpnok]

Elimination of derivative kick is a good term to google

[@akkudakkupl]

@@MrScorpnok You can also just get rid of the D term if you are okay with a bit of overshoot. Most real life process automation just ditches the D term because it has destabilizing properties :D

[@harshdesai1932]

You Explained this in best way than any youtuber can explain. You have cleared my so many doubts. You are a genius. Keep Spreading knowledge. I really really appriciate you man.

[@Octagon-514]

In my opinion this is one of the best PID explanation videos on youtube, Simple, graphic and understandable! Great video!

[@edgeeffect]

I've read about the theory several times without fully understanding but this simplified experiment makes it all very clear..... great stuff.

I know right! I totally agree.

[@PhilippeCarphin]

I spent at least an hour last week trying to find a video on PID control for my friend and none of them including the one I selected were as good as this so I'm gonna send him this one immediately.

[@robbgosset674]

This is by far one of the best explanations of how PID control works. Clear, concise and covers all the encessary information. Thanks for making this video!

[@nieldewet5315]

What a brilliant and intuitive explanation. No lecturer of mine could ever explain it like this.

[@jiangxu3895]

Best PID explanations. I’ve gone through many tutorials, none of them explained well to show the importance of each parameter. It is especially difficult for me to understand the integrate of distance, when the differentiation of distance is equal to speed, which is much easier to understand. Anyway, great video. Keep up!

[@mmdnaderi7183]

best explanation ever ! thank you again

[@embeddedsystemsiotprojects2055]

I made my machine learning pid iron station and i made pid code by helping your videos great man

[@RafaelKarosuo]

As many other have said, this 14 minutes helped understand the PID control implementation in code, way better than a semester of my automation and control introduction. Thanks

[@mrtspirit]

I have watched many videos however non of them put those keywords together. " While the P value is small, hence no error to be sensored to create any movements ,as a result of no changes also No D action to take a place " loved it .

[@wikrap1]

You actually closed half year of lectures on my studies in 3 minutes... :D Very practical approach.

[@GuyFromJupiter]

Higher gain values make for a faster reacting system, but they also tend to make the system very unstable if raised too high. This is especially true in systems with a considerable amount of dead time, which is the time from the PID changes its output to when there is a response from the system as measured by the sensor. This is why PID controls always have to be tuned for an optimal balance of performance and stability.

[@donstillwell9894]

Excellent demonstration of PID control. We are going to build your PID project to use in our maintenance training, where I work, to hopefully give our maintenance team members a better understanding of how a PID control work and how to tune a PID loop. Thank you very much for taking the time to make the video and sharing it with us!!

[@OsoMagna]

Embedded control system engineer here. This is an excellent tutorial. Even Bob Pease would agree, while arguing you could replace the Arduino with a quad op amp.

[@eritronc]

I hope i was told the PID system that way at the university! In 13 minutes i learn what i couldn't on 7 years! Your application is so clear. Thank you!!

[@abhiramghanta9060]

this is one of the best examples that clicked for me

[@ShopperPlug]

This is really a cool PID example, like the fact it is using a LIDAR. This is the best explanation of PID and how it works.

[@ravindrasarak2007]

PID was always a tough topic to visualise but your demonstration made it really easy. Thank you so much.

[@kun_fu_taco4775]

You are a life saver my friend! We have a system that control volumetric flow and we are trying to keep the flow rate steady at very low flows, this is all controlled by a PID system and I had a hard time understanding how to input the values. This really helps! "If the error is too small, the proportional won't affect" This seems true because we have a harder time controlling the lowest flows which is probably not being detected by the system.

[@sumedhburbure4173]

This is the best video on youtube to explain PID controller concept visually!

[@santopino2546]

Hi, I work with PID controllers in the process industry 32 years now, to help simplify things, from experience, in reality a PI works fine with most processes, The D component may give an extra help in some temperature controllers.

[@JonathanWaltersDrDub]

My understanding is that D will help protect from overshoot. This will help eliminate wasted energy. I see this could be useful in driving economy or other autonomous vehicle systems. What do you think?

[@PowerSports]

@@JonathanWaltersDrDub cruise control is a PID system in newer cars

[@JimmyVelghe]

Indeed PI is in general enough to get a system stable, I only use D with very agressively changing processes. That being sayd good base explanation of PID control.

[@ramonmorales4937]

bruhhh my teacher doesn't want us to understand, he just want to cover the signature, even when he is a doctor in control systems. We know how to design a PID in math but not in real plants LOL

[@justineloi1234]

Apparemment je ne suis pas le seul français ici !

[@Debraj-HTC]

This video clearly explains the PID, studying each of the P, I, and D separately made me get it finally.

[@MrJordot7]

I work with PID control quite often yet this is the best way I've heard it explained! Fancy doing a slight development of the same experiment, but put a fan at one end that you can direct towards/away from the ball to model an outside influence? When you use a PID for cooling, the temperature of the coolant can change, which means your actuator may need to start providing 'more' even though it was at equilibrium.

[@AYPAK]

I never had this realization of PID controller. Really appreciate the effort you put in this video

[@77Chester77]

This was my first video in the field of controllers and now I feel that I already have a rough idea what P-, I- and D-Values do. Thank you very much!
