How can i make a segway that i can ride with raspberry pi?

[raspberrypiers]

I know that making robots with raspberry pi is easy, and I want to go more advanced. How would I be able to make a vehicle i can ride on?

(Exclude the components)

I just wanna know how I can make one with my raspberry Pi.
I am desperate to make a Segway and i don't want it to be a failure.
Would it take a long time to make one?

So Yeah.
Please share your experience if you have made one and you can provide links if you have a website that can help me with this.

Thanks

Your question is in the category of "If your expertise is at the level that requires you to seek the answer from someone else then it is at the level where you won't be able to implement the answer."

I'd say 5-6 years to learn what you need to know, then maybe 2 more years to make a prototype.

Time taken will vary depending on how quickly you learn and how much time and effort you spend trying.

Make it exactly how you would make it without a Raspberry Pi, and then add the Pi.

Build a small prototype version first - a lego frame, raspberry pi, gyroscope and accelerometer and motor controllers. Learn about PIDs, learn about I2C communications to get the data from the sensors to the RPi. Learn a programming language and how to write code. I'm assuming here you are good at trigonometry?

Time it takes to do the full-size version depends on how many of these things you know already. Going from small version to full size is the easiest part. Starting with lego means a rebuild is easy if it smashes against a wall. Same can't be said for a full-size one plus pilot.
