The Uno - Segway meets motorcycle


The "Uno" was invented by 18-year-old Ben J. Poss Gulak. The 54.4 kg machine has only an on-off switch.


To go forward you simply push your body weight forward to tilt the machine. To back up, you lean back on the seat to tilt it backwards and back it goes. The farther you lean, the faster it accelerates. The gyro tells the ECU how much to accelerate and that in turn delivers the proper amount of current to the electric motors, one for each wheel.  see more pictures here.
