This kit transforms Arduino Uno, a Hall sensor, and an electromagnet into a complete closed-loop levitation system. You'll write a real-time PID algorithm that reads the ball's position 100 times a second and adjusts current to keep it floating - a perfect capstone for control systems coursework, Smart India Hackathon, or a final-year B.Tech project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll assemble a fully functional magnetic levitator: an electromagnet suspended above a Hall sensor, with a ferromagnetic ball levitating in between. The OLED display shows live position error, current draw, and PID output. Once tuned, the ball floats with sub-millimeter stability, and you can even tap it gently to watch the controller compensate - a mesmerising demonstration of classical control theory in action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Learn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTune PID constants (proportional, integral, derivative) for stable levitation without oscillation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCalibrate an A3144 Hall effect sensor and linearise its output to measure sub-millimetre ball displacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePWM-drive an IRF540N MOSFET to regulate electromagnet current with an INA219 current sensor for feedback\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImplement sensor fusion and real-time control loops on Arduino Uno with interrupt-driven timing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKit Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComponent\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQuantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eArduino Uno R3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA3144 Hall Sensor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eINA219\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIRF540N MOSFET\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eElectromagnet 12V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.96in OLED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100?
