This document provides information about control systems, including definitions, components, classifications, and examples. It defines a control system as an arrangement of physical elements connected to regulate or command itself to achieve an objective. Control systems are classified as open loop or closed loop depending on whether the control action depends on output. Open loop systems are simpler but less accurate, while closed loop systems can automatically correct for errors or disturbances. Examples of each type are given such as a fan being open loop without regulation but closed loop with a controller. Advantages and disadvantages of both are also outlined.
