WalkCar - The new mini Segway

I saw this last night on Facebook and I must admit, I was "tired" and my first reaction was "wow, you can surf on your Magic Trackpad now, what a time to be alive." 😅

What a terrible idea. This guys at 40 will complain why he can't walk or run. His legs will hurt, and he will have joint pain every night when he is asleep because he is not walking enough. Start exercising and come up with ideas that will cure people. Solve real PAIN problems, don't create new problems to human society.

One word - LAZY! Seriously, this is cool but come on. This is just another gadget that we don't need. Just making us even more lazy than we already are, haha 😅

Looks cool. Wow it could push a person wheelchair? That is some muscle. Love how quickly it responds to person getting off of it. I saw it traveling at different speeds. The next obvious questions are- how long to charge & how much cost?

There's something suspicious about that demo video. There seems to be a little too much juice for its size and it's an overly smooth ride given the wheel size. This thing must run for 15 minutes, tops. Where are the specs? Until I see a third-party review, I would not be pre-ordering something like that.

I wonder what the speed of this thing is and how that is controlled?

This looks much cooler and safer than my mono rover

Human dystopia! #walle

I'm pretty doubtful of this having skateboarded (not longboard) and know what an unseen pebble/crack can do to such a small wheel. With no method of balancing/leaning back to get a little pop up over cracks etc. and no easy way to quickly pick this up or throw it down it would have to be pretty tedious to use in a real world not flat setting. That said, the point of it being able to fit in a bag is a big improvement for these kind of transportation vehicles.

Can my existing Mac Trackpad do this!?
