People's mad to buy such aN expensive SEGWAY!


WASHINGTON – Segway Inc., maker of the self-balancing “people mover” that has struggled to expand beyond a niche market since its splashy debut 13 years ago, is now taking to suing its growing number of imitators.
The Inmotion transporter, promoted heavily at consumer electronics shows, as well as the WindRunner, Ninebot, FreeGo and Robstep are being targeted in a U.S. trade complaint filed last week. Closely held Segway and a firm controlled by inventor Dean Kamen are seeking to halt what they call a “widespread pattern of infringement” by the Chinese manufacturers.
They “duplicate, in some cases extremely closely, the design and operation of these Segway personal transporters,” Segway and Kamen’s Deka Products said.
The companies “intend their products to largely if not completely mimic Segways’s personal transporters in operation.”
The complaint filed with the U.S. International Trade Commission in Washington lists at least six manufacturers and three distributors that Segway claims are infringing two patents related to the transporter controls, and two for the design of the machines.
If Segway wins the case, the government could block the competing products made overseas from the U.S. market.
Millard Jacobs of Laurel Hill, North Carolina, who runs the roboscooters.?com website, was one of the distributors named.
He said in an interview he was told that the makers of the scooters he sells – Shenzhen Inmotion Technologies Co., Robstep Robot Co. and Ninebot Inc. – had developed their own technology.
He said the transporters he sells are smaller than the Segway and half the price – $2,500 compared with $5,000.
Segway must be mad because they haven’t come out with a smaller transporter for people,” Jacobs said.
“I wish they’d come to me, I’d love to promote whatever they have.”
He said Robstep and Inmotion came out with 35-pound transporters and “now you’ve got 20 companies trying to make copies.”
Kamen introduced the Segway in 2001 and began selling it to the public in 2002. He sold the company, which was later bought by Summit Strategic Investments in 2013, according to Bedford, New Hampshire-based Segway’s website.
Segway’s products are popular with police and tour groups, though sales to consumers have been hampered by a high price tag and restrictions by cities on where the devices can be driven.

  Chapter I Introduction of Off Road Scooter


  The working principle of the two wheeled Scooter is based on the basic principle called "dynamic stability" which is the automatic balance ability of the vehicle itself. After judging body posture position with a built-in precision solid gyroscope, the vehicles electronic brain works out proper instructions through a sophisticated and high-speed central microprocessor, the 36V-42Ah battery drives the motor to balance the vehicle.

  As a new transporter, off road scooter is difficult to classify in the traditional way, some people think that off road scooter should be a kind of double-wheeled Unicycle, while other people think it should be classed as a power stand-up Scooter, with its uniaxial double design which is different from the traditional biaxial double scooter, for official road regulations, this transporter is called Electric Personal Assistive Mobility Device (EPAMD)

  The vehicle is equipped with dual wheels, its width is as narrow as a normal adult shoulder's width. It is 62 kg and battery-operated. It is not necessary to have a brake or throttle during driving. When the driver leans their body forward, off road scooter will run forward, when the body is upright, it will stop. It uses the dynamic balance principle, as the body moves to change the center of gravity so as to keep balance. Just as the human body stands and leans forwards it can lose balance, but the body's natural instinct will maintain balance, the dynamic stability replicates this. off road scooter uses the wheels to replace the function of the feet, reproducing the high precision balance action of a human, it is also cheap and convenient to use. The energy comes from two repeat charging BTM batteries which are free from maintenance. If sufficient power is supplied to your battery, the full charge capacity will last continuous for 5 hours driving, the driving range depends on the way you drive and ground conditions, driving on grass and slopes will consume more driving power.

  off road scooter is very addictive once you enjoy the fun of driving, you will not help yourself driving it whenever you get the chance, following these instructions will be beneficial for your enjoyment.
Below description will be helpful to your driving.
Tip:We suggest you use Beginner Mode if you did not driver our off road scooter before.

Make sure the pedal is on horizontal level when power on off road scooter.
Step on pedal with another foot(refer to picture 7). The sequence is the left hand-right foot-left foot -right hand or right hand -left foot-right foot-left hand.

2. Driving straight forward
  Lean your body forward slowly using the centre of gravity, off road scooter will move forward (refer to picture 9). The driving speed is controlled by the leaning angle of your body. Lean forward more, off road scooter will go faster and vice versa. For a stable driving, we suggest lean forward slowly. It is dangerous for leaning forward suddenly. This is just like a sudden acceleration when driving a car.              
                                 Picture 9
3. Braking, Driving Backward
  Driving backward is not recommended for the driver's safety, because it is hard for you to see behind when driving. Turning radius of off road scooter is zero, which you can easily achieve in a continuous spin around 360 degrees on the spot. When you drive forward in a straight line and you want to slow down or stop, you can lean backward or squat down (the center of gravity backward). Lean slowly or smoothly backward is helpful for slowing down and stopping safely (refer to picture 10).
             
                                     Picture 10                   
Tip: Driving forward in a straight line you just simply push the handle forward, then backward to slow down or stop.
4. Turning in Original Place, Turn Around and Rotate 360 Degrees
  It is easy to turn the off road scooter when driving. Keep the turning pipe/handle bar left-forward or right-forward to the end, at the same time keep your body corresponding, left-forwarded or right-forwarded as the trend of off road scooter (refer to picture 11 and 12).Thus you can easily achieve various turns. When the off road scooter faces the right position, you only need return the pipe to the original position and stand straight off road scooter will stop.
           Picture 11                         
Picture 12
5. Turning in Driving
  off road scooter's turning range is calculated automatically according to the driving speed, the speed is faster, the turn range will be less to ensure safety of the driver, and it is stopped by the turning pipe and body's corporation. To turn left, the turning pipe should be swung smoothly to the left at the same time as your body leans left. The angle of off road scooter's turn is decided by the swinging angle of the turning pipe and the leaning of your body.

Tip: the actual turning is finished by the above combination of actions, driving the off road scooter is like a combination of riding horses and skiing, or the movement is like Michael Jackson's dancing. off road scooter also is called a thinking car, which means the driver can drive off road scooter according to his thoughts.

It is necessary to check the tire pressure regularly, under inflation and excessive inflation will cause unequal tire wear, which influences comfort and mileage and shorten the life of tire, under-inflated tires also influence power saving.
