## Plan
As suggested in the lesson plan, we plan to use Philippe Hurbain's NXTway [1] and Brian Bagnall's balancing robot as inspiration.
As suggested in the lesson plan, we plan to use Philippe Hurbain's NXTway [1] as inspiration for construction and programming, and Brian Bagnall's code [2] for his balancing robot as inspiration for programming.
In this lab session we will try to make a self-balancing LEGO robot inspired by Steve Hassenplug's origional Legway controlled by the RCX, [2]. Two examples of self-balancing robots controlled by the NXT is Philippe Hurbain's NXTway, [3], and Brian Bagnall's balancing robot, [4].
In [1], Hurbain provides some advice on optimal conditions for the NXTway, which we will take into account when implementing, evaluating and revising our program.
Self-balancing robot with light sensor
Use the LEGO model suggested by Phillippe Hurbain, [3], and the java program from Brian Bagnall, [4] to start experiments with a self-balancing robot. Under the headline Usage Phillippe Hurbain describes under which conditions the NXTway works best. Try to follow some of his advices.
