New Segway RMP looks awesome, moves unnaturally

The new Segway RMP is a robotic concept vehicle that uses the same parts as a regular segway – it just uses twice as much of them. It can carry up to 400 lbs and can move smoothly in any direction from a central point, thanks to a set of very strange wheels. Wait until you see this thing in action… it actually looks a bit creepy.

Since the RMP is still a concept device, it’s not available for purchase yet, but we’ve heard that it might run for around $50,000, compared to about $4,500 for a regular segway model.
