If you have been looking for a new way to travel, then the S-Walker Board is something to get excited about.
A cross between a skateboard and a Segway, this board takes the best features of each product and combines them into one. It has two wheels attached to the inside of the board and your movement determines the speed. If you lean forward, it will go faster, and backwards will slow it down. Wiggling your legs in a pivoting motion will control the curves.
Even though the S-Walker Board is still not road-ready, it will be available soon. This is definitely an environmentally friendly way to move around, and you’ll save a lot of money on gas.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Personal Transportation Boards
- The combination of different types of board transportation showed that there is interest in a new personal mobility device
- Smart Segways
- Combining the technology of a Segway into other devices could be a potential innovation opportunity
- Green Mobility Solutions
- As more transportation options focus on using environmentally-friendly methods, there is a clear opportunity in this space for new and improved products
Sectors Adopting This
- Sports and Recreation
- The idea of combining skateboard-like features with Segway technology could be applied to the sports and recreation industry
- Personal Electric Transportation
- Companies that produce and distribute personal electric transportation devices could benefit from incorporating the technology of the S-Walker Board into their products
- Urban Transportation
- Given the focus on environmentally-friendly transportation in cities, the S-Walker Board could potentially be adapted for use in urban transportation systems
