DIY Auto-Balancing Surface using Servo Motors
Using a touch screen, these DIYers built an self balancing surface which automatically tilts itself based upon the position of any object placed upon it. In the video demo, the surface automatically adjusts to the ball, keeping it directly the the center of the screen, reacting quickly when the object is manipulated.
As you can see in the video, the screen outputs data which is sent back to the servos which adjust their axis accordingly. We carry many servos in varying speeds and sizes in our store.

WOW! what an amazing little Arduino rig. I knew the Ardy was quick, but not that quick!
My favourite thing about the whole Arduino way of things is the simplicity, which allows even a project like this to seem capable to me if I can just get my hands on all the parts.
Thanks for sharing this with us!
