A Bird? A Plane? No, A Segway Transporter
If you have ever wished that you had a magic carpet that you could use to get around the traffic jams or run a quick errand, your wish may be almost coming true. Rather than a ‘flying carpet’ how about a rolling carpet? Or to be exact a Segways Human Transporter.
The Segway human transporter was developed a few years ago to change the way we move. A green alternative to gas powered transportation, the segway has transformed how some of us get to work, do our work or play when not working. No longer are we bound to the traditional fossil fuel vehicles with their toxic emissions. Now we can use battery powered transporters with no emissions, a low carbon footprint and almost no maintenance.
The technology behind the Segway (sometimes incorrectly spelled segaway) enables the ‘rider’ to balance using gyroscopes and sensors. This new technology is called dynamic stabilization. Using electric propulsion which is extremely efficient and clean, the machine will move you to your destination.
The ability to maneuver around corners and make quick turns with the zero turning radius, you will have a unique riding experience. The small footprint is only one of the rewards of the new transporter. The installed software precisely controls the braking and traction control of your vehicle. Using a new, improved lithium ion battery as the power source, you will get a battery life longer than with older lithium batteries. An added bonus is that as you brake, the batteries recharge while the transporter is decelerating.
So, how do you make it go? It is so simple it is as if the vehicle reads your mind, at least your intentions. When you move forward a bit, the Segway goes forward. You want to turn right, turn the handlebars to the right, just like a bike. Want to back up? Lean backwards a bit and you go backwards. It’s as easy as that. There are redundant systems built into the controls for acceleration, steering, and stopping. Using a wireless connection which downloads to a handheld device, the system collects information on the speed, connectivity and life of the battery.
But the exceptional engineering is not all. There are several different models of the Segway. From rugged terrain vehicles which conquer the bike paths, beaches, and off road excursions to a commuter style equipped with saddlebags to carry your ‘stuff.’ There are special police styles which are being used widely by municipalities to increase their security detail effectiveness. It is not unusual to see security personnel or police riding the Segway in major cities, in malls and in commercial or residential complexes. Accessories are available to customize your Segway for your personal needs.
With the rise in popularity of the Segway, you can now find dealers in most major cities across the country. Dealers are all authorized by the manufacturer. Visit a dealer to learn more about the Segway, take a demonstration ride to see for yourself the fun and economy of these amazing little transporters. If you decide to purchase or rent one, the dealer will provide a thorough orientation so you can ride safely.
If you are looking for green transportation, you owe it to yourself to test ride a Segway Human Transporter. This alternative method of travel is for those who want to have a smaller carbon footprint, an efficient and unique transportation experience and just plain fun in getting from here to there.
