Awesome EDWARD Electric Diwheel Vehicle (video)

Looking for a more fun and original way to get around?  Then why not take a look at this fantastic vehicle created by a team of students at the University of Adelaide, Australia from the School of Mechanical Engineering.

The new vehicle has been named EDWARD and is an electric diwheel creation with both its wheels axially aligned, instead of one in front of the other like a bike. Take a look at EDWARD in action after the jump.

The EDWARD Electric Diwheel has been fitted with inbuilt dynamic lateral stability and slosh control to prevent “gerbiling” or tumbling in aggressive braking or acceleration manoeuvres, and also has a unique feature that allows the rider to drive the vehicle when “upside down” – keeping the vehicle in its unstable state.
