STAR WARS BB8

This BB8 from Star Wars is a self-balancing robot I developed with

Anton Vanhoucke and Ellen Pennings. It’s based on the previous

generation of the balancing ball bot, but this one uses omniwheels to

drive. In addition to balancing, this allows the robot to turn its

head. Balancing happens autonomously using a control loop that...

MINDSTORMS EV3 BALL BALANCING ROBOT

This robot is able to balance itself on a ball, using a mechanical

design and software that is very similar to two segway type of robots

running at the same time. One of these “segways” uses two motors

and a gyroscopic sensor to control the ball in the forward/backward

direction, while another set of motors...

BALANCING ROBOTS IN PYTHON AND C

The ev3dev Python source code for the EV3 Balancing robot and the C

code for VEX IQ is now available on Github! The code is a simplified

version of previously released code, leaving out unnecessary

calculations, making it easier to write and tune. The plan is to

release EV3-G and RobotC versions of the new...

TUTORIAL: SEGWAY IQ

The VEX IQ robotics kit comes with several cool sensors, including a

gyroscope. Perhaps not surprisingly, I wondered if it could be used to

create a self balancing robot. And it can! I’ve provided the program

and building instructions below so you can build your own balancing

robot. You can build it with the basic...

It’s based on the previous generation of the balancing ball bot, but this one uses omniwheels to drive. In addition to balancing, this allows the robot to turn its head. Balancing happens autonomously using a control loop that...<div class="clear"></div></div></div></div></li><li class="gdlr-core-item-mglr" style="width: 333.333px; margin-right: 40px; float: left; display: block;"><div class="gdlr-core-blog-grid gdlr-core-js  gdlr-core-blog-grid-with-frame gdlr-core-item-mgb gdlr-core-skin-e-background " data-sync-height="blog-item-1" style="height: 712px;"><div class="gdlr-core-blog-thumbnail gdlr-core-media-video"><div class="gdlr-core-fluid-video-wrapper" style="padding-top: 56.2609%;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/PX7RNmyJgEs?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" id="gdlr-video-402878"></iframe></div></div><div class="gdlr-core-blog-grid-frame"><div class="gdlr-core-blog-grid-date"><span class="gdlr-core-blog-info gdlr-core-blog-info-font gdlr-core-skin-caption gdlr-core-blog-info-date"><span class="gdlr-core-head"><i class="icon_clock_alt"></i></span><a href="https://robotsquare.com/2016/10/16/">October 16, 2016</a></span></div><h3 class="gdlr-core-blog-title gdlr-core-skin-title" style="font-size: 16px ;text-transform: uppercase ;"><a href="https://robotsquare.com/2016/10/16/ev3-ball-balancing-robot/">MINDSTORMS EV3 Ball Balancing Robot</a></h3><div class="gdlr-core-blog-content">This robot is able to balance itself on a ball, using a mechanical design and software that is very similar to two segway type of robots running at the same time.
