This thing was constructed using only Legos, two cheap (~$40) custom sensors and some smart programing using the open source BrickOS for the Lego RCX. The LegWay, as the creator calls it, can balance itself on two wheels and follow a line. Pretty cool for few lego blocks!"

This isnt hard to do, I am a counslor @ FIRST PLACE during the summer and they have two “Lego League” weeks. We built a similar thing yet the kids being age 10-13 couldent really hold their own attentions to work on it.

The lego Beretta and Koch MP5-10 look so much cooler.

So Kamen spent millions of dollars developing the Segway, and then some guy goes out and builds the same thing with LEGOs and cheap sensors. Wow.
