Robocar update

Instapundit points us to this result of the multi-year partnership with Segway.

The article says:

The ride inside one of the three EN-V concept vehicles, destined for display at the Shanghai World Expo opening in May, is silky-smooth motion. You'd never guess that the entire two-person cabin was sliding forward and back, maintaining a delicate balance over its two wheels as the vehicle accelerates, turns, brakes and rotates beneath. And you certainly wouldn't imagine that the device was communicating continuously with others of its ilk, even as it used optical and sonic sensing devices to "perceive" its surroundings and avoid collisions.

The Segway vehicle had found a strong market in SitComs, but finally may be breaking into real transportation. But forget the two wheels, who cares. The vehicle otherwise has all the components of the new Robocars.
