Videos: Toyota's MR, Segway wheelchair

The video meant to be presented here is no longer available. Sorry for the inconvenience.

After the violin-playing robot in the video above, we get a look at Toyota's Mobility Robot (or MR), which we told you about yesterday. MR reminds me a lot of Toyota's I-Real, which was on display at the Tokyo Auto Show and seemed very close to production. There are a handful of a good designs for chair vehicles and clever, new wheelchair designs like Dean Kamen's iBot. Although I think a Segway (another Kamen invention) with a chair added is a better design than the iBot. You can check out a video of Josep Mora's Segway wheelchair design below the fold. I really hope these type of vehicles take off.
