Abstract

In this study, we present a design and a control based on a microcontroller for a multi-axis servo motion chair. The main purpose was to provide the pilot with the tactile sensations required by the human body to increase the immersion of simulation training. With high system control reliability and multi-functionality, the proposed architecture was built with an effective split of the control tasks involved between a master controller and five slave drivers. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed control system, RS485 and RS232 communication transmission interfaces were provided for the control system to obtain related movement information. The performance of the motion chair was assessed through various experimental tests. The results confirmed that the proposed multi-core system-on-chip microcontroller (MCU) with independent communication and real-time control subsystems was feasible to control a multi-axis servo motion chair system.
