Lego NXT segway
November 2nd, 2008Playing around with my sons Lego NXT kit I built a basic version of a segway (where the hell does this name come from?):
well, balancing isn’t as robust as expected, but at least it is working somehow. Don’t have no time for further improvements…
Have a look at the related youtube links for more evolved versions.

Nice. I’m surprised it balances at all - I would have assumed that the speed of the processor and sensor/motor response times would mean it would just fall over immediately.
I think the name is from “segue”.
