Foldable Robot Scooter - Future is here

A robot, which can be controlled by a Smart Phone. You can travel on it.
Yes I am talking about a Robot Scooter that is presented to you by Japaniz company Tmsuk. "This is a robot you can ride," said Yoichi Takamoto, the president of this company.



The Kobot is a scooter-like three-wheeler with just one seat that can can be packed away after use in a space of around 1m².
With a target speed of 30km/h, makers Kowa Tmsuk hope the electrically-powered vehicle will be perfect for navigating crowded city streets, without adding to air pollution.

The driver uses a smart phone to remotely tell the Kobot to fold its rear wheel and seat onto the main body of the vehicle when not in use, something designers say is ideal for cities like Tokyo where parking space is at a premium.

"They are unique vehicles designed to be super-small, super-zippy and full of playful spirit,"  said by Kowa-tmsuk president Yoshito Serita.

The car, named “Teewave”, has a body made entirely of the light-weight carbon fiber, which its designers say will make it not only cheaper to run, but stronger too.
