Re: Self Balancing Robot in FIRST (plausible? possible? preferable?)

One of the coolest things I've seen in FIRST... made all that effort teams put into balancing look like a breeze. Then again, the IBot had something like 9 gyros on it. I'd also be interested to see how a Segway would balance on the bridge from 2001. Has anyone tried that, by chance?
I am going to go try to build something like that now, I will post the video later today
