Sensor Data
Data from sensors feed into the controller.

PID Controller
Employs PID controllers to maintain parameters.

Correction Signals
Generates correction signals to adjust trajectory.
A PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) Controller is used to
regulate system behavior by continuously adjusting output based on
input feedback.
Ensures accurate, stable, and responsive system performance.

Key Components:
1. Input:
○ Sensor feedback from system components (e.g., pressure, flow rate).
2. Processing:
○ PID Controller calculates corrective action using:
■ Proportional (P) – Reacts to the present error.
■ Integral (I) – Accounts for past errors.
■ Derivative (D) – Predicts future errors.
3. Output:
○ Commands sent to actuators or control units to adjust system behavior.
