Kuniako Saito and his team at Cocoa Motors invented a pocket carrier that is small enough to be carried in a bag. This invention is known as carrier "Walkcar" and is currently implemented on crowdfunding site Kickstarter. For those of you who are interested in the product, you will be able to book via the website of autumn 2015 and the expedition begins from spring 2015. The device will be evaluated at 100,000 Japanese yen (about 800 $).
What is interesting about this carrier is that, apart from its small size, it is able to move at up to 10 kilometers per hour (6.2 miles per hour) and for a distance of 12 kilometers (7.4 miles) after three hours of charging, it is powered by a lithium battery. In addition to this, it is strong but light as it is made of aluminum and capable of taking loads up to 0kg (265 lbs). It is more like a skateboard rather than a segway.
Walkcar is easy to mount. When the rider step on it, the driver starts automatically when the driver resign from it, then it will stop automatically too. To change direction, the rider just needs to shift his weight in the direction he wants to go.
There are two versions, indoor or outdoor version and weighs between two and three kilograms (4.4 to 6.6 pounds) depending on the version.
