Re: Rotation of a part independent of the base

You could use an accelerometer/gyro like the navX board to track the prism, and have a slew ring with a motor to turn the cylinder opposite of the prism. Assuming that the prim is the robot and the cylinder would presumably be a mechanism.

EDIT: rzoeller beat me to it
