Bang-bang control, also known as on-off control or two-position control, is a type of control strategy used in systems where precise control is not necessary or where a system can only operate in two states: fully "on" (maximum output) or fully "off" (minimum output). This approach is often applied in various engineering fields, including robotics, aerospace, and HVAC systems.
