About Me:

I am an Education Technical Evangelist at the MathWorks. I support Aerospace Student Competition teams that are looking to use MathWorks tools to analyze, model and program their robots. I earned my B.S. and M.Eng at Cornell University in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. I specialized in aerospace controls, dynamic modeling, embedded programming and simulation. During my time in college I had the pleasure of working on the 4-legged bipedal robot Ranger, which walked 40.5 miles on a single charge of battery. I created a neural-net learning helicopter which taught itself how to fly, and worked on the attitude control of Cornell's satellite, CUSat.


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

During my free time now, I create MATLAB/Simulink flight dynamic and orbital simulations, and I'm starting to build R/C aircraft with the hope of creating an FPV one day.

Sergio Biagioni replied to Edmund Williams's discussion Using Simulink with Arduino to control two motors.
"Hi Edmund,
To have the signal increase or decrease as the vertical channel input is held at a certain value, you'll need to use an integrator. To have the horizontal channel affect the output proportion between left and right motors, you can just…"
