Final Project
Objectives:
-Build a two-wheeled robot using the Lego Mindstorm kit
-Properly equip the robot with a gyro sensor
-Programme the robot to achieve self-balancing using RobotC
– * Implement basic movement routines while auto-balancing
Introduction:
The main objective of this project is to achieve dynamic balancing with a two-wheeled LEGO robot. The model for this robot originated from the Segway. Figure 1 shows a commercially available self-balancing transportation device called a Segway [1].
