PIDDIY (Proportional-Integral-Derivative Do It Yourself) is designed to give users the tools to build their own PID controllers. The library allows manual control over the three primary components of PID systems:
- Proportional (P): Adjusts the controller output proportionally to the error.
- Integral (I): Accounts for past errors, integrating them over time to eliminate residual errors.
- Derivative (D): Predicts future errors, focusing on the rate of change of the error.
It includes a few standard implementations for these calculations to address common control scenarios. Users requiring more complex behavior are encouraged to implement their own compute functions. The library intentionally omits features like output limits and automatic integral windup resolution to maintain simplicity and user-directed customization.
