Default What is old is new again...

The Concord Monitor ran a piece on Friday reliving the birth of the Segway.

In the article, they show a Segway prototype "Concept #1 (C1)" circa 1999.

I hadn't made the connection before...but the control shaft on that machine looks a lot like the leansteer on the Segway i2 SE. I bet the turning features were on the handlebar back then though.

Anyway, it was cool to revisit a bit of history.
