Control engineering (or control system engineering) involves designing, analysing, and optimising a control system. A control system is a set of devices that regulates the behaviour of other devices or systems. It can comprise mechanical devices like machinery or computers or a combination of the two. There are many different control systems, but each serves the same purpose: to control outputs.
An air conditioner is one example of a control system you might encounter regularly. It controls the output of hot or cold air, depending on the temperature setting you input. This process often involves the control of several different devices. For example, most air conditioning systems involve an air handler, a condenser, and a thermostat.
