Honda U3-X
     


The Honda U3-X
appeared to be like a seated Segway, using gyroscopes to keep the unicycle vertical. The
single wheel is
actually an omni-directional wheel, with turning controlled by the operator tilting their
body. The
maximum speed however, is only 6 kilometers per hour, less than a third of the
Segway's top speed. It lasts for about an hour and can carry a person of up to 100 kg
(220 lbs). Where it really excels over the Segway is its small form-factor and its
lightness, weighing only 10 kg (22 lbs). Honda has not yet released a price point, nor a
release date.

Oh yes, the price... Looking ridiculous has no price.

  Yeah quite bizarre really, though looks fun.

220 lbs? a paperweight! I guess if they made a larger one, their feet couldn't reach the pedals / platforms.
