Thanks Bill that is great information.

I guess we are in similar fields,I run a little design company with enfasis on "Dinamic" Ergonomics.
for a long time i have a really big interest in the field of movility specially for less-able people.sorry if that does not sound to PC,,is not my intension to offend,on the contrary I wish i can help make their lives a little better.

sound like the I-Bot is doing pretty good

so i have a little question(i just glance at the pictures) I just saw a photo of a guy with a remote control(the person was standing) so my question is,,can the I-bot be driven like a remote control car, so the person can park it inside the car by him self,after he is being seated on the driver seat of the car.
to me that canandrum always intrige me,,in other words,,,,how people get from the trunk of the car to the driver seat,the way I see it a chain of events only needs one weak link to be broken...

thanks again,your site and John site are a great source of information
