A Segway RMP200 has been bought by Victoria University for the purpose of making an autonomous robot. The focus of this project was to create reusable services that use existing navigation algorithms to control the Segway within an indoor environment.  A SICK LMS100 laser rangefinder was added to detect obstacles and allow localization of the Segway within a known map.
