Segway

This repository holds code for robots that balance on two wheels, made with various robotics platforms.

Currently available platforms

LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 (ev3dev/Python):
- Building instructions
- Add a Touch Sensor to Port 1. I added it just like the Gyro, but on the other side of the brick. This will be the program's safe stop button.
- Run the program like any other ev3dev Python program
  - Transfer and segway.py and parameters.py to your EV3, and put them in the same directory.
  - To turn them into executable scripts, run:
    - chmod +x segway.py
  - Now you can run the program: ./segway.py
  - Or, use the VS Code IDE for convenience.
  - Wait for the program to start (up to 10 seconds)
  - Hold segway up right with its resting wheels on the ground and press the Touch Sensor
  - Press the Touch Sensor again to stop. Then again to restart, if you like.
