thats not a rollercoaster thats just a train at that point. if you can control a rollercoaster train then it defeats the whole perpose of a rollercoaster.
Do you think you could build a simple suspended coaster? 40x70in 18 in tall. Motorized but not on the back. On the track. A little bit larger. I’d pay nicely actually. For someone who knows how to print it shouldn’t be hard.
Hello Jon. I m a swiss engineer, currently working in electronic product industrialization. I'm a big fan of your work. I think we can make a real product for sales of your work. If you would be interested to discuss it, let me know and I will give you my contact info :). Best Regards Alex
Essentially yes, but it uses a target position and velocity at each point in time. It uses the position as the primary set point and then velocity is just extra information to keep the motor generally spinning at the speed it's expected to when following the plan.
@@jonmendenhall5074 very interesting. I am also working on a real time simulation via accelerometer where I figure out the current direction vector of a train and calculate its current velocity and feed it into a function which gives the new velocity which can be used to rotate the motor.
