Convenience on Handsfree Transporter
Using the gyro technology that Dean Kamen used when he invented the Segway, a German engineer Ulrich Kahlert has ripped apart a Segway and reconfigured it to make a Handsfree Transporter, which is a hands free scooter built for specific tasks, such as a Steadicam system or worker transport to a novelty entertainment and advertising tool. There are some videos at the coolly designed site.
One can only speculate at this time that Ulrich Kahlert has got permission from Dean Kamen to re-invent his Segway, nevertheless this puppy travels at 21kmh up to 35 km distance on smooth surfaces and takes 5 hours to recharge via standard domestic power source.
