I'm glad you liked the robot. The one you saw was built by Telecom 
Paris, and I don't know whether the sources are available.

We at AdaCore started an internal project to experiment with modeling 
technologies and automatic code generation. We built a similar 
Segway-like robot, where the controller is designed with Simulink and 
Ada code is automatically generated using GeneAuto 
<http://www.geneauto.org>. We'd like to make it more widely available as 
an example. We showed it at last FOSDEM (Ada Developer Room) 
<https://archive.fosdem.org/2012/schedule/track/ada_devroom.html> and 
people liked it. We are going to show it at the forthcoming Ada Europe 
(there will be an Ada in Motion session).

Best regards,
Jose
