You may be aware that Microchip sells a developpement tool called
FuzzyLab.
        http://www.microchip.com/10/Tools/picmicro/code/fuzzy/index.htm
The software included is made by fuzzyTECH.

You can download a demo from fuzzyTECH
        http://www.fuzzyTECH.com/index.htm
It includes a few exemples where fuzzy logic is used:
1) an overhead crane moving a large load. It lets you try to do better
by manualy activating the controls;
2) the other exemple is a F1 car racing around some known circuits.

Hope this helps
