Design of an LQG controller for two inverted pendulums Objective: The objective of this paper is to design linear quadratic controllers for a system with two inverted pendulums on 2-d Plane. To this goal‚ it has to be determined which control strategy delivers better performance with respect to pendulum’s angle and the cart’s position. The inverted pendulums represents a challenging control problem‚ since it continually moves toward
