11/13/2003 04:02 PMWe've been receiving lots of stories about Segway spin-offs lately.
First, there's the EMBRIO/2025, a
next-generation, one-wheeled personal transporter design from
Bombardier. It's very reminiscent of Syd Mead's gyro-balanced,
one-wheel
designs. No guesses on if or when it could really be
made, however. Jerry D. Elmore sent us a link to several of his
designs
for turning the Segway into a "multi-taskable product" by allowing it
to
double as an automous robot that can perform surveillance or other
duties. And a number of readers pointed out the new Technology
Review article on Cardea, an MIT
robot based on a Segway.

Segway Becoming a War Robot?
Segway Becoming a War Robot?
12/02/2003 12:23 AMCTV.ca has an article that says
U.S. considers turning scooters into war robots.Though few could
afford the
$4,000 Segway scooters, Universitys bought them for study and now the
US
millitary wants to enlist them for battlefield missions. Segways have
already
been modified
to open doors and avoid obstacles and such, and now the military wants
to send them out for
search missions, transporting injured soldiers and carrying gear. So
maybe the Segway scooter deserves more of our respect, because even as
President Bush embarrisingly found out, these Segways now have the
potential to do
harm.

05/26/2004 01:25 PM...here comes the Eas
yGlider. Basically an electrically-powered single wheel with a
long handle trailing behind it. You can let it pull you on roller
blades or a skateboard, or attach a wheeled standing platform to it.
It's much lighter and much less complicated than the Segway, and will
likely be cheaper as well. And it goes faster too!
The Swiss manufacturer has a domain, but so far it's under
construction.
This is almost as cool as the new Schwinn Stingray. I want
one.

John Wiseman says:
Regarding Segway robotics, I thought you might be
interested to know that DARPA funded development of a Segway-based
common robotics platform (the "RMP"): Link. A
group at CMU is working on a Robocup robot soccer team using the
Segway RMP: Link. One cool
thing about their work is that it's the first robot soccer team (as
far as I know) that can play with and against humans on the field.
Unfortunately they don't seem to have any images/video of that online;
I saw some video at a conference a few weeks ago.
Random thing #1: I hear there's an upcoming exhibit at the Center
for Land Use Interpretation of video from cameras mounted on sheep,
spiders, tumbleweeds, etc. Sounded cool. Link. Sheep stampede video: Link.
Random thing #2: Origami folding robot at CMU: Link.

response when asked asked the about incident is priceless: "Some

the future, but I could be wrong. They've got about another 14 years
to pull it together.
