Continuous finite time differential equations are introduced as fast accurate controllers for dynamical systems. These have qualities superior to controllers which are currently in use in such applications as robotics. The structure of the phase portrait for scalar second order finite time systems is determined. This characterization is used to develop a class of second order finite time systems which can be used as controllers.
