ZMP INC., believes that a robot is the most suitable hands-on material for learning basic engineering ideas for students in such disciplines as mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, control engineering, information engineering among others.
About ZMP e-nuvo series
Humanoids attract a great deal of attention, and so with the ZMP e-NUVO series. ZMP is looking forward to contributing most effectively to the teaching and learning of fundamental engineering skills through its four types of robots (BASIC, ARM, WHEEL, and WALK). This series include not only these advanced robots but also practical textbooks so that instructors and students can immediately use their robots in class.
For the student to learn through practice about robot motions (motion equations) and how to control them, we present a two-wheeled inverted pendulum robot. This robot permits us to understand easily not only Modern Control theory but also how to use sensors such as encoders and gyro-sensors in our algorithms. The user also gets to know about analysis and simulation through the use of the well-established tools from MATLAB/Simulink.
