... INTRODUCTION
The introduction of the Segway Human Transporter to the city of Portland’s mobile agencies……………………………………. ... SEGWAYS FOR PORTLAND’S PARKING ENFORCEMENT
How it works Segway Human Transporter can self-balance because of a technology called dynamic stabilization. ... Where you have an inner ear, eyes, muscles, and a brain to keep you balanced, the Segway HT has solid-state gyroscopes, tilt sensors, high-speed microprocessors, and powerful electric motors performing to keep it balanced. ... Segway HT balances whether youre traveling at 10 mph, carrying a heavy load, slowly maneuvering in tight spaces, or standing perfectly still.
The Segway HT intuitively balances the way humans do—moving forward and backward, responding to changes in your bodys position. ... Operation is natural, intuitive, and one of the primary reasons Segway HT so seamlessly integrates into enterprise situations, pedestrian environments, and everyday life. (Segway, 2001)
Where it works Segway HT is designed to go anywhere you can walk with the proper training, skills, and experience. ... Like a person walking, all that a Segway Human Transporter requires is traction to operate in virtually any environment.
Segway HT has been engineered from the ground-up to operate under a wide range of conditions. ... The Segway HT has been extensively tested to withstand vibration, varying temperatures, and exposure to moisture. (Segway, 2001)
