| Another great motivation factor has been all the great videos from [[http://www.youtube.com|Youtube]], where many people have tried to make a balancing robot using the LEGO Mindstorm kit. Most of them are very unstable and only capable of balancing, so it seems as a great challenge to make a remote controlled driving balancing robot with implemented behaviour models enabling the robot to interact with the environment. We were especially impressed and inspired by the outstanding implementation by Yorihisa Yamamoto(([[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ulBRQKCwd4|Yorihisa Yamamoto's nxtway-gs]])). | Another great motivation factor has been all the great videos from [[http://www.youtube.com|Youtube]], where many people have tried to make a balancing robot using the LEGO Mindstorm kit.
