I hope you arn't using a standard robot computer. I think that it would be impossible in PBASIC. A lot easier in C. (Well... still hard as heck, but still easier that PB.)

I'm trying to think. How would the program decide if the user is leaning forward, and thus wants to go forward, or if the unit is 'falling' forward and the user wants to stay still. I remember seeing Dean at the 2002 kick off standing on a ramp. The segway would go up...&...down...up...&...down. Pretty funny. I think that they improved the code, because as i remember, when i saw if again on a ramp, it didn't move at all.

They have improved the code. I was able to ride a segway only a couple months after they came out. Then I rode one this summer. When I rode it the first time it would kinda shake if you wanted to stay still. Then this summer when I rode it it was smoooooth.

The model I rode was the I-Series
