U3-X Personal Mobility Prototype



Cool. Impractical for a dozen reasons, but who cares?

For the partially mobile (say a badly damaged hip or leg that can take occasional weight, but is painful to walk on), it seems that this could be useful.

I have no idea how large of a market that would be, but I can think of three engineers/scientists off the top of my head who might be interested in something like this.

They look so awkward on that thing.... I'd be embarrassed to be seen on it. XD

I like the fold-out ass-pads, but to be compliant with various policies prohibiting discrimination towards disabled ... oh poo ... "differently-abled"...wouldn't those pads have to be MUCH bigger to handle the er, wider girthed?

And really how long do you think it'd be before some clever fellow super-glues a giant dildo onto the handle so it can be "ridden" in more ways than one?

I agree with Natalie...

Much like a Moped or a fat chick...this would be fun to ride until your friends saw you!
