This project presents a stability control system for a telescopic handler. An STM32 microcontroller executes embedded firmware interacting with a dynamic Simulink plant model to compute the combined center of mass in real time. A predictive safety algorithm enforces a stability margin to prevent tip-over during boom motion and vehicle rotation.
