A control system is a set of devices or algorithms that manage, command, or regulate the behavior of other systems or processes. It takes input from sensors, processes that information, and produces output to achieve desired performance. Control systems are widely used in various applications, such as automobiles, industrial machinery, and home heating. There are two main types of control systems: open-loop and closed-loop. An open-loop system operates without feedback, meaning it does not adjust based on the output. In contrast, a closed-loop system uses feedback to continuously monitor and adjust its performance, ensuring more accurate and stable operation.
