This research investigates a low-cost realtime air quality monitoring and closedloopcontrol system framework, i.e., an air purifier system. The air quality monitoring process is formulated as the closedloopcontrol system operation, with the potential air particles are considered as the disturbance signal and the desired reference level is considered to be the safe air particle level in the environment. The actual sensor detects and measures the environmental particle levels that are then fed back to the system input where the control system compares the feedback as well as the reference levels in the controller that generates proper control actions for the air pump to maintain the desired air particle levels during the real-time air purification operations. The proposed control system architecture was developed and implemented by using relevant components and the experimental results clearly demonstrate the viability of the controller synthesis for closedloopreal-time autonomous air quality operations.

This paper presents the results of the development of a modular open source platform for experimental control setups. This platform emerged from research on the automatic rotation start-up and landing of a tethered airplane for wind energy harvesting, implementing and testing promising theoretical concepts such as real-time moving horizon estimation (MHE) and non-linear model predictive control (NMPC) on hardware developed in parallel. As experimental setups for testing new control algorithms tend to be fine-tuned by trial and error methods, a rapid control prototyping system for fast evaluation had to be implemented. Technical results of this research are presented in the form of a modular platform for real-timecontrol. The created platform provides a complete toolchain for performing, observing and evaluating control experiments. It offers modular low-cost hardware and free software especially suited for flight control experiments. Clearly defined interfaces between the components allow for expanding on its current capabilities for other control scenarios in need of fast and reliable real-timecontrol. The provided modularity allows for spatial separation of high performance computing hardware from low-level components, permits rapid reconfiguration of the experiment and eases the collaboration and workflow between hardware developers and control engineers.
