The Uno

[DEN MONKEY]

have a quick look c at this and see what you think


The Operation of the Uno

Operation of the 54.4 kg (120 lb) machine is simple, in fact it's so simple there are no controls except for an on-off switch. To go forward you simply push your body weight forward to tilt the machine. To back up, just lean back on the seat to tilt it backwards and back it goes. The farther you lean, the faster it accelerates. The gyro tells the ECU how much to accelerate and that in turn delivers the proper amount of current to the electric motors, one for each wheel.

Interesting novelty.

I imagine the operation would be quite unnerving though.

Looks like it works on the same principal as the Segway, as seen on the tax assessment commercial on UK tv and also as used on stage by Peter Gabriel.

Though I must admit it looks a damn sight better than any of the Segway models.....

[LeeR]

Yet ironically it has two wheels...

So how do you do an emergency stop and not go over the front ?

Some people have far far too much time.

Quite, how unimaginitive taking an invention like the segway and just whacking some different bodywork on it.

I can see how an engineer of your calibre is convinced that both wheels locked up...

[Danny]

So what happens when your leaning forward at max speed and it cuts out?
