T.A.C.S self leveling platform

Final project for Devry New Brunswick, spring 09'. Group members include
me, Matt Palaski (Debugger/troubleshooter)
Mike Kershaw (Lead programmer)
and Dan Melkissetian (hardware).

This is a self leveling device. Notice how the wheels adjust to how we shift the board.

This project works with a PIC18F452 MCU, a 3 axis accelerometer and 3 digital servo motors.

Do you know Citroens self levelings cars?

[MattPski]

I am now, lol. I honestly never heard of this car company before. I'm amazed I never even heard of them on Top Gear when i catch it on BBC America. I'll certainly look into it more.

Thanks for the input :D

can you please tell me from where a can get a pair of wheels and motor

Oh man - they hold it, because there are no brakes on the wheels - the vehicle would roll away and fall off the table. And the leveling-system works well and tries to keep the platform in a horizontal position - good work!
