Created as a mobility concept by a team of researchers at the National University of Singapore, the autonomous self-driving mobility scooter enables users to never stop using their digital devices.
The autonomous self-driving mobility scooter works by allowing users to stay connected to the Internet and browse as much as they want without having to pay attention to where they're going. Reaching a maximum speed of 4mph, the autonomous self-driving mobility scooter uses as series of laser sensors that allow it to navigate through areas and avoid obstacles. The mobility concept has been deemed successful for being able to help reduce the instance of accidents between pedestrians. Moreover, the autonomous self-driving mobility scooter helps to reduce the need for traditional cars in urban areas and campuses.
