@o0Barkingduck0o Hi. the frogeye has been in work of 19 years! It was very rotten with no floor. Hopefully should complete the bodywork summer 2012.

Too many tech toys and ideas to dabble with - the frogeye completion keeps getting pushed back!!

Good to see someone in the UK building something like this. Personal project of course, if in a college health and safety would stop you.

Like the Frogeye Sprite too!

great, very good, works like a segway?, what does the control do?, the one in your hand

@jerryrulo , Hi, the controller is a wii nunchuck shell containing only the joystick pots, wired to analog input of the arduino controller board down on the platform and used to bias the motor drives for steering. The accelerometer section of the nunchuck was moved onto the lower platform (I2C interface) which together with a WII motion plus gyro provides the stabilisation sensors. Next move is to chop it into a unicycle !

Good work guys!
