Well ... this is not a fuzzy controller but it's related.  I've designed
a crude "self taught" (learned from the open-loop response of the system)
neural controller that operates on a cart/inverted-pendulum system.  You
can specify a setpoint of say 40 degrees from the vertical and it will
propell the cart to hold that position.  Or you can specify another 
number up to zero degrees and again it will generate a force profile that
will cause the pendulum to hold that setpoint.  The setpoint locations 
are, of course, nonlinear relative to each other because of the relation
of gravity to the dynamics of the pendulum.

Is this *kinda* what you're talking about?
