  3. Exists, but christ, 150 bucks a shot. forget it.

  4. This looks awesome, you don’t even need the helmet.

  5. Been done. looks usable. https://www.thegearcaster.com/2010/05/bug-screen-for-your-bike-helmet.html

  6. Just a good visor would do it wouldn’t it? I like this, which has lights and loads of cool gubbins.

  7. I always thought “you can’t keep a good idea down” but it looks like you can. These guys seem to have quit, taking the opportunity with them. Not sure how they failed, but it will be a while till someone else can apply this amazing tech to all the applications it deserves to be on.

    From wiki: “In 2014, Jyrobike launched a Kickstarter campaign that raised $185,818 from 872 supporters. On November 25, 2014, Team Jyrobike announced a 9-month delay in delivering bikes. That was their last update. As of July, 2019, the jyrobike.com url is no longer active”

  8. Looks like they changed their name – which indicates they didn’t plan properly or were hindered by unforeseen circumstances. This was ages ago though, why no wheels like this on stuff other than segways?

  9. You can’t buy these anymore on Amazon. If you read the reviews, it indicates that they trashed their chances of making an amazing product by inferior design and awful customer services. I hope they don’t have the patent on this so that nobody can have a bash at such a great product idea. there are so many uses of a wheel that stays verticle. What happened to Gyrobike, anyone know?

  10. I have the Plixi, they are a great idea, but expensive to be fair.

  11. Didn’t realise it was an early AI… “One of the most ingenious aspects of Pac-Man is that each ghost behaves differently—one simply chases the player, two try to attack Pac-Man from the front, while the fourth will chase and then abruptly change course.

    It was tricky because the monster movements are quite complex,” Iwatani said. “This is the heart of the game … The AI in this game impresses me to this day!”

  12. Seems like everyone who is a nurse, teacher and delivery driver is now a hero, so hard luck for all those community minded people of the past who helped others when their neighbours were or weren’t in crisis.
