@insanomonkey Segways are for lazy ass people who don't want to walk. This machine can be used for rehabilitation in patients that have gotten into accidents and have lost the ability to walk. Unlike the walker which requires the patient to either pick it up every step this has the ability to me moved with practically no force and has the capability to prevent the patient from falling both backward and forward.
@Ryuuken24 Machines can't fix that. The friction from the bone disintegrates the cartilage like matter between the bones which causes the unnatural curvature of the back, once the damage is done you can't fix it. Prevention is what you need.
It's about time they put all this "gyro" tech into action. With all the processing power we have nowadays I wonder why don't we see more of this "robo assit" around.
Complete waste of money. From looking at this, it does nothing groundbreaking for the disabled or the elderly that a regular walker with wheels or those little tennis balls at the bottom couldn't do. Some walkers even have seats and baskets to further assist them. This is not going to stop an elderly man/woman from falling. All it is going to do is keep moving forward while he/she falls flat on their face, or off to the side.

Now the only problem is how can an elderly person get it up a flight of stairs by themselves (if there is no elevator or anyone else to help)?

Can't we just build something more useful, like a back straightner, because that is why old people walk the way they do?!

this thing seems a little fast, and it would be better if the handles were on either side and overall have it lower for easy handling

@hammam0 "did he say naruto at 1:10 ?"
Yes, he did but it he didn't mean it as a name of character, food or place.
He meant it as "if it does, then..."

This would actually be very helpful for things like carrying luggage.
As a walker it's kinda standard - nothing groundbreaking here.
