Did you know segways balance themselves? Yup. You don't even really have to do anything. You just kind of rock your feet if you want to go forward and the reverse to go in reverse. Let me make myself more clear: to keep a segway in balance you have to do nothing. For reals.
So why haven't we applied this technology to other stuff that needs balancing? The original device that made me think of this was ladders. Couldn't ladders just go straight up and not need to be v-shaped? And if you put wheels on the bottom then you could move the ladder without getting off of it.
A ladder that moves while you're on it and takes up less room than a traditional ladder. Yup, that just happened.
And if they balanced themselves then they'd be super safe. Except, you know, if you fell off.
Cuz you don't have self-healing bones, John Connor.
