segway? This is interested. So malaysian called it “beca”? I don’t think so, Beca have 3 wheel, While segway just like mini scooter that the wheels is on the side of the machine!

Very unique and worth to try! Have you try it?

Yup, I tried riding segway

KH, Japan is a very unique country in itself.
It has one of the unique culture of its own.
I took Japan and Chinese history, culture, civilization a couple yr back. It is interesting that Japanese a very rigid hierarchy kind of society, gentle , docile people , follow order, peaceful nation but they have the most violence media. Look at their cartoon, their movies, they have the most violence media and yet you don’t see any such violence in the society. It probably has to trace back with their warrior samurai structure.

I love history ! and I love robot too :).
We have lot of robot vacuum cleaners here :)-. In fact, US also used a lot of robotic automated system,especially in medical field.

Japanese are very creative in producing products that can be used in space challenge situation.

Yes, I do agree that most of the cartoon, movies, animes from Japan are violence in nature. Actually in recent years, there are many reports on murder and killings in Japanese society. Most of these crimes are committed by minor. So don’t be surprise, Japan is going to be ranked the most violence society in the near future.

very nice robots. how do the japanese uses them? as a maid like what we have - indon maid here?

is the segway used outside on the road as well? It kinda reminds me of a similar transport we used to see here a while ago. forgot what’s the name

Yeah, Japanese loves to use robot as maids. For example that Ifbot, it is designed to chat with old people.

The segway can be used outside on the road as well. In fact, I heard they are using it in Singapore Airport by the security forces.
Segway in Malaysia?. I thought it is called “beca”
