The Innovation of the Segway By Mona Alsheddi Kettering University Jan 26th‚ 2011 1. Abstract This paper discusses the innovation of the new personal transporter: Segway. It gives a brief description of the Segway is a self-balancing electric vehicle invented by Dean Kamen and produced by Segway Inc. in 2001. The name Segway came from an Italian word means “follows”. (1) As any other transportation device‚ Segway is used to move from one place to another‚ yet it used to move among places that

to tools and machines. According to Sen(1999)‚ technology is‚ “the means or activity by which human beings seek to change or manipulate their environment.” Over a long period of time the history of technology inevitably highlights the moments of innovation that show this cumulative quality as some societies advance‚ stage by stage‚ from comparatively primitive to more sophisticated techniques. Technology refers both to the artefacts created by humans such as machines and the methods used to produce

My First Lab Report: Diffusion and Osmosis To begin‚ this is my first time doing an experiment and a lab report for biology’s class. Although‚ it was a little hard at the beginning‚ my team and I got the hang of it and we finished it on time. It was actually kind of fun. There were three steps in the experiment: 3.1 A – Molecular Movement: In this session‚ I was observing a sample and determining if there was a movement or not. 3.1B –Diffusion through semi-permeable membrane dialysis tube: In this

Diffusion through a Membrane Introduction Molecules are constantly moving. They move in straight lines unless they are deflected by other molecules or obstacles in their environment. Diffusion is the process by which the collisions between molecules cause them to continually spread apart from each other. Their movement can be described as movement from an area of greater concentration to an area of lower concentration. Diffusion continues until the molecules are equally distributed

and Diffusion Lab Report Background Information: Diffusion involves the movement of solute particles across a selectively permeable membrane from higher to lower concentrations. A selectively permeable membrane allows only some thing to go through. Water and oxygen are examples of molecules that are able to go through the membrane by diffusion. The
