Chich Smart S1
« on: Wed, 27 May 2015, 09:53:18 »
I just saw these things on massdrop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUnT6Ipswj8

As I watched this video, I got the impression that while riding this thing I would be thinking the entire time "what am I supposed to do with my arms?"

Like a Segway, I feel like it would be fun to try, but I highly doubt I would ever buy one.

I've never tried one but like, for real, walking is just better.
I'm always staggered when I see pictures of Police forces riding them, like this is what public money is being spent on?

Free market and all that ****, but these just seem like the gateway drug for fatties who then progress on a full blown electric wheelchair because they are 'disabled' lol

The problem with the Segway is that it can Mame a full adult, and almost certainly kill a small child.

Then people started "modding" the Segway to give it more power.. ~12-15mph.. That's pretty fast for 260lb machine + 150lb rider..  400lbs coming at you at ~12-15mph

That's why they were banned on walkways..

The final problem is that they're still too slow and unsafe for "streets"..

Thus, there is now no where to go.

This chich thing is just a toy.. no one is ever seriously going to transport themselves using this..

It has to do with range-weight ratio..


ALSO,  what's up with all this mumble on Transportation.. 

INTERNET ftw..

Need something like this, with collision detection and GPS, that you can climb on to take you home when you have been climbing the white ladder.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
