### Overview

In this workshop, participants will engage in hands-on exploration of model predictive control applied to mechatronic systems. By engaging with cutting-edge tools and techniques, participants will develop the skills necessary to configure and deploy model predictive controllers on real hardware.

To streamline the guided exercises, the workshop makes use of the free and open-source [Rockit](https://gitlab.kuleuven.be/meco-software/rockit) [1] and [Impact](https://gitlab.kuleuven.be/meco-software/impact) [2][3] software frameworks developed by the [MECO Research Team](https://www.mech.kuleuven.be/en/pma/research/meco) at KU Leuven and built on top of the numerical optimization framework [CasADi](https://github.com/casadi/casadi) [4], designed for efficient nonlinear programming.

Exercises will be mainly in Python and Matlab. Attendees can later adopt the presented open-source software frameworks in their research.

While foundational concepts of nonlinear programming, optimal control and model predictive control will be briefly introduced, the course focuses on learning-by-doing. The course prioritizes practical know-how, enabling participants to directly apply Impact to tackle real-world control challenges.
