I have continued to work on the pendulum leaning a few things. And the most important thing i have learned is that if i do not cut corners some way or another, i will not be able to finish the project in time.
In pure desperation to finish the actual pendulum software wise by this Saturday, i will be using mostly ai generated code, and steering away from LQR and going towards PiD.
If i am able to finish this pendulum in time this week, and finish the writing part of science fair after testing, i will rewrite the code in its entirety.

But the most recent updates are:

• Changed from LQR to Pid
• Completely rebuilt the whole mechanism hardware wise (3d prints, layouts, mounts)
• Figured out i need a diametrically magnetized magnet for the thing to work so got one and implemented it.
• Changing from ordoidxu4 to pi5 at somewhere outside of home, and main pc when at home.
• Getting an auto tuner implemented.
• Got the new swing up motion to be somewhat consistent (My code)
• Started to use a USB 3.0 4 port hubs
• Added cable organizer to the encoder wires.
• Added ESP32 Mount
• Learned about stepper motor heating up way too much issue, melting 3d prints, causing me to have to re 3d print my pla prints. Will print out of abs soon.
• Learned about esp encoder ERR issues, need to bring magnet closer.

Added signup page, login page, and started on the create task page.

I learned the basics of streamlit, and think im ready to start the actual project.

What i learned:

• how to make side bars
• How to make text
• how to make pages
• How to make buttons
• How to make buttons do things
