Foreign experts DIY their own electric balancing car Segway

Segway, also called a somatosensory car, a thinking car, a balancing car, etc., is an electric-driven, self-balancing personal transportation vehicle and a type of urban transportation. Petter Forsberg, a young man from abroad, wanted to own a Segway, but he chose to DIY it instead of buying one directly, "to see if it is possible."

He used motorcycle accessories to create the basic appearance, and made his own substrate (including gyro sensor, speed control device) and software to complete the "Segway core". Compared with the genuine Segway, which is priced at tens of thousands of RMB, this fake Segway only costs 300 euros, of which 200 euros are spent on the hardware and 100 euros on the substrate and electronic equipment.
