N2 - In this paper, we design a modal controller for conservative flexible systems that uses distributed sensing. Spatial filtering of the distributed displacement and velocity measurements based on the system eigenfunctions prevents spillover instabilities in the closed-loop system. The proposed control is proven to stabilize a discrete set of controlled modes without destabilizing the remaining, residual modes. We then apply the theory to a single flexible link robot arm and experimentally demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed control strategy. The experiments use high speed video feedback with image processing to determine the spatial beam curve. The controller quickly damps the first modal response without causing instability in the remaining modes.
