10. Cybernetics and sailing systems Jerome Jouffroy, MCI, jerome@mci.sdu.dk Sailing systems? - cannot move without a flow in the surrounding environment - not isotropic in displacement - the path they can take depends on the flow dirrection Main question: how can a computer steer such systems? Cybersailing: apply cybernetic principles to control sailing systems.
