Honda Creates A Butt-steered Cycle by WhoIGoAsk: 9:32pm On May 16, 2012 |
Designed to mimic the speed and height of walking, the Uni-Cub's lithium batteries power a trick wheel that can move any direction. Using sensors on the seats, riders simply shift their weight in the direction they wish to travel -- there's also a smartphone control app -- and the unit rides high so that the riders have eye contact with people not cool enough to glide around the office up to 3.7 miles on a charge. Honda says it will begin testing the Uni-Cub next month with a Japanese research museum. But like all great inventions, the true value of the Uni-Cub may lie well beyond the inventor's concept. if Honda really wants to try it out, I'd suggest either a college dorm or a preschool, someplace where riders will test the extremes of the self-balancing system. A drag race with a fire extinguisher-powered office chair would also be welcome. 1 Like

ITbomb: their laziness don reach level wey dem no fit Waka from one office to another? Thought so myself, but hey read the piece again and find this part - Who I Go Ask?: Who says this invention might not become useful for the elderly and/or infirm. More-so, you can't fault the Japanese way of living. Those guys, those Asians, they live way way healthier than we do here in Nigeria. |

NIGERIA- An anti-research/development country. I remember all the ideas and dreams I had to make an impact through invention... Used my hard earned resources to make researches and come up with evidences at Expos and Exhibitions attended by top government officials, All I get are promises which were never fulfilled.. Thank God today, I diverted to doing something that puts enough food on my table and gives me joy. Nigeria my country |
