Forget about the Segway – how about getting to work in style with the Chariot from Exmovere Holdings? It does make you look like a robot, but is controlled by subtle movements using subtle movements of the lower torso and hips. There will be sensors located inside the cocoon-like shell which is smart enough to predict the intended motion of the wearer. Don’t worry if you’re inherently clumsy, as the Chariot does not rely on manual dexterity or supreme physical effort, while the upright form enables the user to make direct eye contact with others. It has a maximum speed of 12 mph and is powered by rechargeable batteries to get you around. Could we see Chariot races of the 21st century then?
