Gyro as in gyroscope, not kebab.
So who will make the first app that lets me strap my iPhone to my back wherein its sensors feed a program on the device, or more Siri-like on a remote server, that keep me upright after swilling pints all afternoon?
I guess version 1.0 has a backpack with a segway-like bundle doing the heavy lifting. Version 2.0 communicates with my inner-ear to hack my natural mechanism for balance.
Anyone for kebab tonight?

Cool transportation concept out of MIT. Half-size prototype in the video, the actual will be about same size as a Smart when unfolded, much less when folded to park / store.
