Segway Robotic Platform for carrying food

dave · 04-12-2014, 11:16 PM

My father currently is doing well using a walker for walking around his house. However he has trouble carrying food around the house for meals. He can use a small bag for carrying books, papers, and small stuff like that; however, he has a problem at meal time when he pours a drink or food on a plate. He can't carry a plate or a glass and keep it level with both hands on a walker. I was wondering if anyone had experience using one of the Segway platforms for such a purpose? He can place anything that must stay level on the platform, walk to a table, then summon the platform, and then transfer the plates to a table. Is this something workable?
