Phone holder

Many drivers rely on smartphones for navigation, music, and calls in the car, but holding the phone while performing any of these tasks impairs driving ability and is illegal in some states. In fact,  it greatly increases distraction while driving, where engaging in a hands-free gadget  showed no increased crash risk.

To more safely use your phone in the car, get a mount that will keep its voice command button in easy reach and its screen viewable at a glance.Mounts can stick to windshields and dashboards, clip to vents, or fit into cup-holders. A good mount will offer multiple points of articulation so the phone can be optimally positioned. 

The Worlds most functional phone holder, makes an ideal driving accessory, allowing driver and all passengers the ultimate hands free gadget . Better still, pop it on the front seat headrest for the kids and it becomes your own personal in-car entertainment kit!  

 

It also places the phone at an ideal position that doesn’t block your view of the road.

Instead of the traditional plastic cradle, it holds your phone with a magnet, which makes insertion, removal, and repositioning of the phone easier than with any other style of mounting gears! We use them for driving directions, to play music, and to make the occasional hands-free call. A good mount allows you to complete these tasks as easily and safely as possible by positioning your phone where you can quickly glance at it.

Apple co-founder Steve Jobs said in a 1983 speech that the company's strategy is really simple. What we want to do is we want to put an incredibly great computer in a book that you can carry around with you and learn how to use in 20 minutes ... and we really want to do it with a radio link in it so you don’t have to hook up to anything and you’re in communication with all of these larger databases and other computers. 

In the last quarter of 2013, there were 26 million iPads sold, an Apple record, compared to 22.9 million in the last quarter of 2012 and 21.42 million in the last quarter of 2014.

 

Segway

The segway is a two - wheeled, self-balancing, battery powered electric vehicle which was invented by DEAN KAMEN.

 The technology part that it handles is it balances with the help of dual computers that run proprietary software, two tilt sensors, and five gyroscopic sensors . The servo drive motors rotate the wheels forwards or backwards as needed for balance or propulsion. The rider controls forward and backward movement by leaning the Segway relative to the combined center of mass of the rider and Segway, by holding the control bar closer to or farther from their body. The Segway detects the change in the balance point, and adjusts the speed at which it is balancing the rider accordingly. On older models, steering is controlled by a twist grip on the left handlebar, which simply varies the speeds between the two motors, rotating the Segway PT (a decrease in the speed of the  left wheel would turn the Segway PT to the left). Newer models enable the use of tilting the handle bar to steer.

Segways perform best in areas with adequate sidewalks, curb cuts at intersections, and ramps. They are used in some theme parks by visitors and employees. Angel island state park, in San Francisco Bay in California, offers Segway tours, but prohibits personal Segways except as needed by disabled visitors. The special police forces trained to protect the public during the 2008 summer olympics used the Segway for mobility.

A version of the Segway i2 is being marketed to the emergency medical services community. Equipped with light bars and a variety of hard and soft cases, it is sealed against wet conditions, and rated for 24 miles (39 kilometres) per charge. 

The cost of segway is
X2 SE - £4,995
x2T SE - £4,995
X2 SE camo - £5,195
