Segway Robot These are basically self balancing

robots. They balance themselves by

translating themselves to and fro. Their motion will be sensed by

using a sensor. The sensor used is called

accelerometer sensor. The sensor is to be combined with

a micro controller to be used. The microcontroller must be

programmed in a way so as the robot translates to maintain its balance on receiving inputs from the sensor.

Uses They can be used in

such a way as to travel forward or backward.

They can even be used as vehicles by humans.

It works irrespective of irregularity of surfaces.

The current day short distance usage vehicles can be substituted by them.

It is extensively used in military.

.

Our Project

In our project by using an ATMEGA8 microcontroller we are interfacing the accelerometer sensor.

The microcontroller is attached to the chasis of the robot.

The program has to be written into the microcontroller in such a way that the tilting of robot sensed by the sensor should be balanced by the motion of robot in respective direction.

The motion required can be provided by using two small motors attached to the wheels of the robot.
