For those who think the Segway isn't small enough, Honda might just have your device.
It's called the U3-X and most people think it looks like a space-age unicycle. And it's actually fairly striking in its ability to move not just forward and backwards but sideways and diagonally, too.
Top speed is 3.7 mph, which for most people would be a power walking pace. The device moves in whatever direction its user leans towards.

I saw it on Carol`s post yesterday. And I will put the same comment: people will stop using legs for walking one day :irked:
the concept is good I think for moving goods or freight, I saw two people on a segway yesterday at the station :left: and I didn’t wonder that both of them had more overweight to carry than my own weight :right: … that made me wonder why I didn’t wonder at all … if God would have given me wheels instead of legs and feet … I’ll keep on walking …
