ABSTRACT:
A normal pendulum is coupled to an inverted pendulum to provide a composite conjugate pendulum having an effective length much longer than the actual physical lengths. The motion of the pendulum is sensed by a capacitive transducer and pivot friction is minimized by a two-bar two-strap suspension system.
