I Built a Ball-Balancing Robot

I built a ball-balancing robot that uses computer vision, inverse kinematics, and control theory to keep a ball stable on a moving platform. This video documents my process.

This project is open-sourced, you can find the relevant information here:

Check out my blog to learn about the inverse kinematics and computer vision part of the project. I will update it soon!

This is my first actual video, and I would assume there are many issues with the editing, pacing, etc. Please don't hesitate to let me know what I can improve, I'd really appreciate any feedback!

I’ll also be posting more projects related to robotics and AI, so maybe subscribe so you won’t miss out.
