  • Would you be able to help me out in building this for my college Project. I am almost done getting all the parts except the controllers.

  • Hi friends I want to kwnon which kind of gyro did u use. If you use 2 axis you use (XY)or(YX)or(YZ)or (XZ) OR you use XYZ 3 axis gyro

    contact me fluke_family@hotmail.com

  • Not unique in anyway. Search on Homemade or DIY Segway and you find many equal and better solutions.

  • AND PATTERN !?

  • WHERE ARE CODE C ?

  • It seems to work very good, and is cheap compared to the original one.

    Why did you used the custom H-bridges instead of using the power electronics from the scooters? Any reason? Thanks

  • @marcheseDS The reason that I didn't use the electronics from the scooters is because they are only able to drive the motors in one direction. Regards p1r

  • hello sir i m impressed with your awesome creation and i also wanna build it but the main problem is tht i m from mechanical engineering and i don't know much more about electronics well i have gone through yours given details. i hope u could help me in building my segway so give me the complete detail about the software and codes u used in developing the diy segway.

    plz help me by sending the details b'coz its my final year engineering project.

    thnk u.

  • peter, love what you have done here! I have two friends on board to build this ourselves! I would also like the details and code if possible. This is the perfect project we have been looking to undertake :)

  • czemu każdy szwed wygląda jak pedał?

  • I think it's great you made your own personal transporter, but I would be carefull using the name of an existing product this way youself. If others are calling it a 'DIY Sægw@y', thats their choice, ;-), just don't do it yourself, to aviod getting into legal problems.

  • Let's start a company I'm a professional marketeer and entrepreneur, your an inventor. Working for others sucks.

  • Hello Petter! I´m very interested in your project! Couldyou provide more details about the mechanics, motors, and hardware? I´m willing to make my final thesis about a DIY Segway. Thank you! Congratulations!

  • Du skull einte kunna tänka dig sälja sånahär? jag kan tänka mig betala upp till 10 000 kr för en, lätt. :P

  • Very cool. Impressive work.

  • btw, you left out any mention of how you're measuring your steering angle...are you just using a pot to sense steering input?

  • @poldim yes it is measured via a pot that sits in the joint, the steering is also quite simple to implement if you already have built an inverted pendulum robot, you can just add the steering on top of your signal without affecting your control loop.

  • Nice work and great videos

    I've made a tiny inverted pendulum robot before, this may just motivate me to make a full size model...

  • Nice work, cant you cool the cmos components by "fix" them to the baseplate? Then you would have "floorheating" =D and can remove the fan "optimising" the battery time. How long does the contraption run?

  • @baxalasse Hi and thanks for the tip, I was actually considering this but I choose the fan method since it then is easier to disassemble. Also the battery consumption of the fan is very small compared to the consumption of the motors. Cheers!

  • Hello Perter congratulations for the work would like to ride a Segway to me you could provide the hardware and program the Atmega? I saw on your blog hackaday found in the post and interests me a lot, was thinking of mounting the zzaag but I had problems with the electronics. If you can provide thank you. I could not post to your blog

  • @medegodoi I will share the code as soon as I have cleaned it up. Regarding the hardware I guess you mean the drawing of the electronics. The mainboard doesn't really make sense to share because you could just use an arduino board, same microcontroller and everything. But if you really want i could send it to you. Regarding the H-bridges, they are not of mine design. I can ask my friend Benjamin who designed them and hear if he wants to make it public. Regards p1r
