Basics of PID Control 🔧

In this video we introduce the concept of proportional, integral, derivative (PID) control. PID controllers are perhaps the most popular and widely used control scheme in history. While they are relatively simple, they are surprisingly robust and provide excellent performance in most situations. This video introduces the core concepts in PID controller and sets the stage for various future videos where we will discuss their nuances and details in greater depth.
