The best part about the robot is when it becomes still there is always a little bit of movement that makes the robot seem a little more "real".]]>Mar 13th 2007 9:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/13/lego-mindstorms-nxtway-g-much-cooler-than-segway/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/13/lego-mindstorms-nxtway-g-much-cooler-than-segway/Mar 14th 2007 4:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/13/lego-mindstorms-nxtway-g-much-cooler-than-segway/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/13/lego-mindstorms-nxtway-g-much-cooler-than-segway/Mar 14th 2007 7:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/13/lego-mindstorms-nxtway-g-much-cooler-than-segway/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/13/lego-mindstorms-nxtway-g-much-cooler-than-segway/Mar 14th 2007 7:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/13/lego-mindstorms-nxtway-g-much-cooler-than-segway/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/13/lego-mindstorms-nxtway-g-much-cooler-than-segway/
Check this link (http://www.personalrobotics.nl/mambo/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=91&Itemid=53) to see another "Segway" balancing Lego NXT robot (look at bottom of page). This one uses just the lego parts (balancing based on lightsensor).

Have fun!

Let's see where is that quote: "American drivers take approximately 900 million car trips per day. The EPA estimates that half of all those trips are less than five miles (8 km) long and transport only one passenger. If just 10% of those trips in cars were replaced with an electric vehicle, that would save 6.2 million gallons (23.56 million liters) consumed per day and that would translate into a huge reduction in vehicle emissions."

Once, again, go ahead, turn off your computer after a day of surfing, waddle off your herman miller chair and walk the 58 steps to climb up into your SUV and laugh at the lazy people on tiny electric vehicles as you drive the long 0.9 miles home.

Nice.]]>Mar 14th 2007 5:53PM
