Hybrid Systems

Hybrid systems are those that mix continuous dynamics with discrete dynamics. This can mean physical phenomena controlled by something discrete like a logic based controller, or more interestingly controllers that switch control laws based on different circumstances.

Gemini AI says a good example of a hybrid controller is a robot that uses a movement controller until it reaches a target, and then switching to a force controller thereafter. The continuous dynamics and physics have not changed, but the derived model of the physics has entirely in a discrete way. This kind of 'mode' switching is called being event-driven.
