Wheelchairs 2.0

Have you ever wondered why, for example, wheelchairs look quite conservative in design while some cars, household appliances and other every-day-use devices can be a delight for your eyes? Well, it doesn’t have to be that way:

By Segway

Personal Transporter

The Segway is a two-wheeled, self-balancing personal transporter brought to market in 2001 as the Segway HT, subsequently as the Segway PT, and manufactured by Segway Inc. HT is an initialism for “human transporter” and PT for “personal transporter.”

Ninebot One & Minipro

The Segway PT (Personal Transporter) is an invention of American Dean Kamen, who originally designed the dynamic stabilisation for the electric wheelchair iBot. The iBot is able to overcome stairs and to lift its physically disabled user to eye height of a standing person. The use of the dynamic stabilisation for a „vehicle to be used daily by everybody“ resulted from the vision of relieving cities from car traffic and defining mobility anew. Steve Jobs and the Credit Suisse shared this vision and had thus been supporting the development financially. The Segway PT has been designed as a reputable and professional vehicle.

Segway miniPro

The current second generation of the Segway PT is characterised by high-quality technology, such as gyroscopes, acceleration sensors, lithium-ion batteries or the wireless Info Key. The high redundancy of the systems guarantees safe drives for over 10 years. The completely intuitive steering of the vehicle by shifting the body weight and by use of the Lean Steering possesses addictive potential. Segway Personal Transporters are used primarily in the fields of security, rescue, logistics, and promotion, on golf courses and in tourism. Individuals use the Segway PT for effective operation on short distances. The vehicle is being produced in the USA. More than 100,000 people around the world are using this innovative electric vehicle. In Switzerland, there are several hundred Segway PTs.

The Car In The Bag

The car in the bag – by WALKCAR – tested by Nic Henry

The world’s smallest portable mobility vehicle was born from the idea of “I wish I could carry my car around.” Living unrestricted by distance from stations or transportation infrastructure will enrich people’s lives and change lifestyles and the way cities exist. WALKCAR, born in Japan, is a mobility product that changes the concept of movement.

WALKCAR brings you closer to your favorite shops and parks. Because you can easily access places that are a little far away on foot, you have more options for living, such as living in a spacious house further away from the station or having more stations nearby.

From now on, it may be possible to live a convenient and enjoyable life regardless of the distance from the station.
