Ulrich Kahlert's add-on/modification for the Segway enables handsfree operation of the ubergeek scooter.

He also makes a camera mount for cameramen.
Implications - Segway personal transportation vehicles have revolutionized the way people navigate on foot; they're virtually omnipresent in malls and have inspired a tech-savvy twist on walking tours in many major cities. By adapting this pressure-sensitive vehicle to make other jobs easier, such as filming video, product designers can build upon the success of the Segway and take advantage of its expanding consumer base.
