In recent years, control systems have played a central role in the development and advancement of modern technology and civilization. Practically every aspect of our day-to-day life is affected by some type of control system. In industrial settings, we find control systems in the quality control of products, weapons system, transportation systems, power systems, space technology, robotics, and much more. Control systems can be classified as open-loop and closed-loop control systems. Closed-loop control systems can also be further classified as proportional (P), Proportional Integral (PI), or proportional Integral derivative controllers (PID).
