Fuzzy Logic for Embedded Microcontrollers
by Circuit Cellar Staff on 2015/02/25
in CC Blog
Figure l--Traditional sets are simply defined by their endpoints. Fuzzy sets add a second dimension to express fhe degree of truth (on the y-axis), which allows sets to be defined with gradual boundaries between false and true.

Fuzzy logic doesn’t necessarily need lots of horsepower. Many embedded applications that use more traditional control schemes can benefit from the use of fuzzy logic. Back in 1995, Jim Sibigtroth explained how to keep things simple and speedy. In Circuit Cellar … Continue reading →
