Honda’s Uni-Cub: Bringing Us Closer to the World of “WALL-E”

The Uni-Cub is Honda’s answer to the Segway — a “personal transport device” that you control by shifting your weight ever so slightly. Now we’re a step closer to the future described in the Pixar film Wall-E, where walking is passe and every rides, eats and surfs the net on their transport chairs:

It’s still a concept device and not yet on the market, so if you’re tired of still walking around like a chump, you’ll have to settle for a Segway or Rascal for the time being.

Here’s Honda’s video showing the Uni-Cub in action, complete with Katamari Damacy-esque J-Pop promotional soundtrack.
