What about Segway's patent?
Isn't the Robin utilizing the same dynamic stabilization technology that Segway or DEKA rather has patent on?

The Robin M1 has it's own patents. And to go into more depth on that one as well. Wheels, tires, windshields, etc ets. are part of every vehicle, not just one particular make. Taken a step further. All cars and truck have engines, those engines all have many components that make them run, and there pretty much all the same far as powering a car.....pistons that move back and forth inside a block to produce energy. The same thing goes with the Robin, the robin has it's own Computer Controlled Gyro system to keep balance, so there are no patent infringements.

Are all of the systems redundant for safety as they are with the Segway?
What chemistry do the batteries use? |

To be honest we are not that familiar with the Segways safety systems. We can however tell you that the robin's angles are adjustable. Meaning you can tinker with the sensativity of the Robin to best suit your needs. ( this does require a general knowledge of using the blue tooth function with the robin and a smart phone or tablet )
The Robin does have safety features to keep the rider from abruptly falling off if there is a sudden malfunction, the robin will slow then come to a halt, if thats what you are asking, but just like with a segway, if you cant keep your balance your sure to fall off, lol |

Again, read me carefully and do try to comprehend, even old dogs can learn new things..........
SEGWAY HAS BECOME NOT JUST A NAME BRAND BUT A UNIVERSAL UNDERSTANDING OF A DEVICE......Newspapers, TV shows and everybody else we can think of refers to the Computer contolled gyroscope devices as segway type or style, ......o.......is the word gyroscope taken to? Can you describe a microwave to someone without using the word microwave? Can you tell someone to watch tv without using the word? How many different manufacturers of microwaves and tv's do you know? |

The elephant in the room is the matter of patents being presumably violated.
Trademark violation is a somewhat more subtle issue.

I notice one of the claims in the advertisements state how there are so many types of Segways to buy. Unless you know of some top secret models, there are only two, an I2 and and X2. Before you talk about all the earlier models, those are not current. With statements like that, makes it really hard to believe other statements.
As far as calling "Segway type vehicles" as being generic, that would be like calling all copiers Xerox type. It is true that people say go make a Xerox of this paper, however I highly doubt another brand says theirs is a Xerox type copier. Why can't you call your device a self balancing two wheel parallel scooter. There are other knock offs which you could call your device instead of Segway type. Again, I find that pretty deceptive.

You can check ebay and find allot of model segways for sale, not just the i2 and x2, so those model segways are vey much so current even if they are used.
We have already responded to your other allegations please read the thread, you are fully within your rights for your opinion |
