Title: Penguin Small Walker
Code Name: penguin_small_walker.bpx
Purpose: Walking with small steps on inclined surfaces


Penguin Small Walker is remarkable! It gives Penguin
ability to walk on slightly inclined surfaces without using
an inclinometer.

These small walking steps are very useful for increasing
motion stability. Or just watch, it's really fun!

' Requires calibration

' Small Walker gives Penguin the ability to walk by taking small
' steps. Designed for smooth surfaces without irregularities, it
' increases stability of walking on slight sloping plane surfaces
' without the use of an inclinometer.

' Calibrate using the servo calibration program
' in the penguin program suite. Place the calibrated values in the
' declarations section for CenterTilt and CenterStride, changing
' the default values.

' Small Walker code fits the Penguin Motion Control Template, can
' be added as a function for control with the infrared hand held
' remote, works well as a dedicated program, or add-in to your
' own code.
