The Lego model uses an Arduino to move the rods up and down (using a servo) and controls the simulated Cherenkov radiation (courtesy of blue LEDs).

It is a robot made of Arduino and Lego NXT components based on the Segway. A software library to control LEGO NXT motors and a few sensors he used is available on SourceForge.

Cantin took to his workshop. He had to scrap his first design entirely when a metal tube attaching a servo-motor to a LEGO brick proved too flimsy (it died during initial testing).

Enhancing Lego Mindstorms with Arduino Lego Mindstorms NXT is a sophisticated and fun educational robotics set that teaches kids and adults engineering and programming skills.

Pretty much every project I've done just lately has required me to test out some servos and experiment with their positions before they go into the assembly. I usually make a quick servo tester on ...
