Posted January 7, 201510 yr Sorry I been away for most of 2014, damn them kids lol So just knocked this up last night. Works quite well Here is my son having a go:
January 8, 201510 yr cool model, I have always wondered how well it works with having a large number of multiple motors to power sources.
January 8, 201510 yr Looks great, really cool proof of concept. Just don't get the hiccups when riding on it!
January 8, 201510 yr The big guy is back! With awesome stuff as usual. We've seen the chair, at least most of us, so care to explain in a bit more detail how the controls via Google Glass work?
January 8, 201510 yr Author So Google Glass runs Android 4.4w and so it talks to the main NXT using Bluetooth. This NXT then controls the others via touch sensors (paddle system at the back) Ask away if you want to know more!

So, in theory I should also be able to control the chair using my Android Wear smartwatch? Is there an app or something for that or did you make something yourself?
January 14, 201510 yr Author Yeah anything thats Android and supports Bluetooth can control the chair, I hope to at some point do a iOS version, whats your smart watch like. I have a Pebble at the moment and love it. Is their a need for an Android app?

I have a Pebble at the moment and love it. Is their a need for an Android app? Well, I know that there are apps available to control the NXT (and Evo). I don't use my NXT a lot, but I tried it out it in the past and it worked quite nice. But, I didn't know that it would also be possible to do that with Glass and Wear. I have a LG G Watch R as smartwatch. It would be fun to be able to control NXT with a smartwatch, but I don't see a real use in it
January 15, 201510 yr Author Once I get a Google Wear device, I will take a look. The main area missing is iOS support!
