Warning: obnoxiously loud video autoplays. OP, it's better to link to the parent site for a HN submission, in this case http://www.matiarobotics.com/
But content-wise, this is fantastic - great tech solution, exactly what HN is about. This is the best pitch I have seen in in several years; Mrs. Browl was watching it over my shoulder and quipped that 'it's like a Segway that's useful.' Couldn't agree more.
Apparently due to go on sale at end of 2013 for about $15,000. Not so cheap compared to scooters, but factor in th reduced cardiovascular and psychological medical costs, and I bet insurance companies will be happy to get behind it. Again, fantastic. Great find, OP. Also, an obvious licensing opportunity for American investors.
