![]() ![]() This instructable is most up to date and has the circuit diagram and latest code here: NOTE(December 2014): I have also done an Instructable using the same digital Sparkfun IMU in a self-balancing scooter. NOTE (March 2014): I have finally made something similar to this that actually works with a modern DIGITAL IMU from Sparkfun, the 6dof sensor, code No: SEN-10121. ![]() In essence a complete re-vamp of the control system, making it simpler to build at the same time. NOTE December 2013: Even these are getting rare now but I have just found the "Grove" series of analog sensors from Seedstudio and added contact details to page 6. I have tried to make it as easy and in particular, non-confusing as possible to build. On top of that, the analog output inertial measurement units that were commonly available stopped being made.Īll my self balancing projects are now on my Youtube channel here: Click Here, I have taken a low price obscure analog IMU that IS currently still made in China, that IS available on ebay, and used an Arduino prototyping "shield" to mount ALL the parts, including a cable to a basic hand-controller (for steering and fine-tuning the balance point) and a cable with just 2 wires that you connect to a 2 x 25Amp "Sabertooth" motor power controller. There are >500 comments on this and many express confusion setting up the balance sensors, software and electronics. Why did I make it? I previously made an Instructable in 2010 on how to build a self-balancing skateboard. G eneral purpose Arduino shield for self-balancing machines. ![]()
