Analysis of intermittent control systems by human operations

Human adaptive mechatronics is the coined name for a research project at Tokyo Denki University sponsored by Ministry of Education, Sports, Culture, Science and Technology (MEXT). Human adaptive mechatronics consists of human and mechatronics, and aims to develop Mechatronic systems adapting and assisting human operations. In this paper, the human control action of human-in-the-loop system is studied paying attention to the sampling effect via visual feedback. To analyze the performance of human operations with such factors, the swing-up of a pendulum by human was studied.
