Rideable Robot

A robot you can ride, how’d they do it?Start with a Segway MiniPro. Add AI and a personality. That’s exactly what you’re getting with Segway’s Loomo. It’s a an all new robotic sidekick that works like a mini transporter when you’re on board. It is capable of reaching speeds up to 11 mph and has a range of over 20 miles.

When you hop off its autonomous functionality then takes over. It can follow you autonomously and shoot stabilized video and images, with you controlling via voice, gestures or touch. You can also control it remotely via smartphone, letting you see, speak, and interact, and over-the-air updates promise to bring further functionality.
