In retrospect, it's a bit surprising they never enhanced it to operate hands free like this - it was made by the same folks as the segway and feels like a natural evolution.
- EvanKelly 11y agoI remember talking about the iBot with a wheelchair bound friend when it came out. His response was "the people who designed this have obviously never been bound to a wheelchair". I think I was in 9th or 10th grade at the time, so I don't remember his reasoning, but I remember the disdain for the invention. Any iBot users out there that could chime in?
