This research presents a modification of the horned lizard optimization (HLO) algorithm to optimize proportional integral derivative (PID) parameters in direct current (DC) motor control. This hybrid method is called horned lizard optimization algorithm-aquila optimizer (HLAO). The HLO algorithm models various escape tactics, including blood spraying, skin lightening or darkening, crypsis, and cellular defense systems, using mathematical techniques. HLO enhancement by modifying additional functions of aquila optimizer improves HLO performance. This research validates the performance of HLAO using performance tests on the CEC2017 benchmark function and DC motors. From the CEC2017 benchmark function simulation, it is known that HLAO's performance has promising capabilities. By simulating using 3 types of benchmark functions, HLOA has the best value. Tests on DC motors showed that the HLAO-PID method had the best integrated of time-weighted squared error (ITSE) value. The ITSE value of HLOA is 89.25 and 5.7143% better than PID and HLOPID. © 2025, Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science. All rights reserved.
