This Gitlab account contains complete python, matlab, and simulink solutions to the three design problems presented in the book. We will be actively maintaining the Python solutions.
The lab description and assignments are described in the hummingbird lab manual, which can be accessed below. During Winter 2023, the manual will be under construction and will be updated frequently. You should re-download the manual before doing each lab.
Template files for the hummingbird simulation are contained in the GitHub directory "_hummingbird_sim."
Template files for the hummingbird hardware lab are contained in the GitHub directory "_hummingbird_lab."
You will need to install a version of python 3 on your computer. Download the latest version of python from https://www.python.org.
You will also want to install an IDE. We recommend either:
Install the following python packages:
- numpy
- slipy
- matplotlib
- control
- pyqtgraph
- pyqt6
In linux or macos, you can install a python package using the command
pip3 install numpy
If you are using pycharm, open Settings>Project:python>Python Interpreter. Make sure that the latest python interpreter is selected at the top, and then click "+" do add a package and search for the needed package. For example, my system is set up as shown below.
Alternatively, you may use this requirements file to download all the necessary dependencies: requirements.txt
To install these dependencies, simply use the command:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
