IVIaxor is an unknown quantity at this point
I have been working on my own sort of mini-segway. It won't actually carry anyone (except perhaps a small rodent) but it will still be very cool. Im using an OOPic as the controller and a model helicopter piezo gyro for balancing. Eventually it should be able to drive around autonomously. The project has been stalled recently for lack of machine tools to build the chassis, but it looks like I will be able to use our school's CNC Bridgeport very soon. If it is ready in time I will bring it to the Pacific Northwest Regional and (hopefully :-) nationals to show off.
