What is Segway Centaur? Concept Centaur¡'s unique design and control systems redefine how a four-wheeled device can operate. By using the small but powerful servomotors in the Segway HT and combining them with a minimalist aluminum chassis, the Centaur weighs only 115kg and retains a similar narrow track-width of its two-wheeled cousin.
What separates the Centaur from any other four-wheeled device is its ability to rise up and balance on its rear wheels. Using the same balancing technology as the Segway HT, dynamic stabilization, the Centaur can be precisely maneuvered in tight spaces, using the same lean-forward, move-forward control ¨C even allowing the rider to steer with the front wheels off the ground.
Like all Segway products, Concept Centaur is battery powered, resulting in no emissions and quiet operation. The applications for this unique technology are virtually endless, from indoor commercial use to urban commuting to the most demanding outdoor exploring.
