I'm not convinced on this. The blog could just be a coincidence. I'm not aware of any Segway UK involvement with RMPs prior to now and I'm not aware of any major successes Segway INC have had with RMPs. They list a few examples:
  • Robosoccer
  • NASA Robonaut
  • Target practice
Interesting but not the kind of thing that will excite everyone.

I know just because I'm not aware of something doesn't mean it is so (or not), but until we hear something official or some further examples/thoughts, I'll stick to my guns on this.
