Chapter 1230 – Self-balancing personal transporter
Both chatted for a while, and Feng Yu suddenly remembered another popular product in his previous life when Li Dafu was about to leave. But most of the market share in his previous life had been taken up by overseas companies.
This product has many uses. Not only can it be used by civilians, but even the military and police also use it. Self-balancing personal transporter.
Self-balancing personal transporter can be a single wheel or double wheels. This device is also known as the Somatosensory Self-balancing device. It uses dynamic stability and is inspired by spinning tops. It does not have stable supports, but it will not topple over.
Self-balancing personal transporter uses tilt sensors and gyroscopic sensors to move and control it.
This was designed for fun and leisure, but it has become a new type of transportation device in the future. It is also high-tech and uses the center of gravity of the user to control the speed, movements, and direction.
When it was introduced to the market, it was known as ‘black technology.’
These two years, after this technology was introduced into the market, many countries researched on two-wheels Self-balancing personal transporter and it is one of the most researched topics by robotic researchers. The US is leading in this technology, followed by Japan, France, and Switzerland. Even Russia and Germany are lagging behind these countries.
Last year, Segway was formed and quickly become popular. Its product quickly shifted to military uses as it has a turning radius of almost zero. It can be used in tight spaces and used as an unmanned ground vehicle for scouting purposes.
In the future, many bomb-defusing robots will be using this related technology. Of course, there are caterpillar track robots, etc. which are suitable for different types of terrain.
Some scientists even felt this technology can be used in space exploration as it is more useful than those robots with caterpillar tracks.
China has also started researching this technology, and Huaqing University is leading the research and a few other universities.
By right, the standards of these Chinese researchers should not lose to overseas. Still, they did not cooperate and conduct their own research, hoping to get fame for themselves.
If these researchers worked together, it would be faster. Of course, they must have sufficient research fund in the first place.
The more advanced the technology is, the more research fund is required. China’s precision instrument research is second-rated, and just the gyro technology cannot meet international standards.
Many of the made-in-China Self-balancing personal transporters use parts imported from Japan and the US in the future. They had only assembled the parts and sold them under their own brands.
Whoever controls the core technology will have the final say and highest profits. That means the biggest portion of your profits will go to other people, and the risk you are facing will be higher.
Segway had left a deep impression on Feng Yu. It had appeared during Beijing Olympics, and many local authorities bought it in large numbers, resulting in this US company making high profits.

Feng Yu also want to try developing this technology. Still, Bing City Machinery Manufacturing Group does not have experts in this field.
However, Bing City Machinery Manufacturing Group can work with the Universities’ professors by sponsoring research funds and sharing its research’s fruits.
Feng Yu wants to use this technology on its products and profit from it. Those Universities wanted fame and money, and some are ordered by the State to develop them.
The state will order them to research this technology but will not provide enough funds. This is because China’s economy is still not developed yet.
Eight to ten years later, the State will increase its investments in this area. The higher-ups don’t know this, but the Government needs to spend its money in other areas.
“Manager Li, help me find out which institution and experts are researching on Self-balancing device. We will sponsor their research funds and get the rights to use this technology.”
“Self-balancing device? Manager Feng, this device is useless and is similar to an electric skateboard but is selling much higher. It is also very heavy and has limited uses.”
“Limited uses? That is because you have not targeted the right crowd. Think about this. When Policemen patrol in crowded areas, they need to be standing higher to get a clear view of the surroundings. Some factories, including inspection in Supermarkets, can also use this. This device can also be used as a personal transport device. With some simple training, people can play with it.”
“But this device does not have handles. Should we add a handlebar?”
“Yes. But even without a handlebar, you can think of other ways. For example, you can use a pole to help the user balance.”
In Feng Yu’s previous life, he had played with self-balancing devices. He held a rope attached to the front of the device to help him brake. If the user doesn’t dare to lean back, the device will not stop. With a rope attached, it will be easier. After the user is used to it, the rope can be removed.
Adding a handlebar is fine, but it will restrict the user from getting off it. They can only get off from the back and not the front. This might be an issue during emergencies.
Using a rope? Li Dafu imagined someone holding the rope like he is riding a horse…
Li Dafu doesn’t know if it will work and will get his people to test this idea. He needs to get in touch with those researchers and invest in them to speed up their research first.
Yes. Li Dafu can sponsor more research labs and get them to share their findings to speed it up.
If money cannot move these researchers, then Li Dafu will use the overall national interest to pressure them. Our target should not be competing among ourselves. We should be competing with those foreigners and stand above them!
Yes. This is what Manager Feng always says, and it is useful against those researchers.
These old researchers don’t care about profits. They only want fame and stand above others. But against the National interest, they must give in.
“Oh, our electric bicycle should also have a foldable model. We can authorize our folding technology to other bicycle factories. Good products can be expensive. If our product is the best in the world, we can sell it much higher than our competitors, and consumers will still buy them.”
Feng Yu continued to chat with Li Dafu about his ideas when he received Kirilenko’s call.
