No hands segway

Postby james » Tue Dec 06, 2005 11:58 pm

From Wired:

Now this is a Segway we could really jump aboard. Unlike the standard American Segway, this newer Japanese version doesn't monkey around..

At first that red-cord , red-button speed controler that Jegway(tm) users hold in their hand looks silly. However, I suppose it's really more of a deadman safety switch so the Jegway(tm) doesn't take off on its own.

Japan invents the Segway!

Postby Taro Toporific » Thu Mar 19, 2015 6:30 pm

Japan's new electric tricycle, the "Ily-A," has been unveiled this week. According to technologicvehicles.com, the Ily-A can take several forms: a three-wheel seated scooter, a stand-up transporter, or a carrying basket for shopping in its minimized-mode.
