Hoverboard-2 Wheel Self Balancing Scooters

 Hoverboards resemble a skateboard without wheels.These self balancing boards use very clever sensors to detect when the rider leans in a certain direction, and, in turn, the electric motors spin the wheels to move in that direction. Basically, all you do is shift your weight in the desired direction and you will move towards it. Riding one is pretty eerie, as the board seems to “know” where you want to go. It’s almost like it’s reading your mind.


The cost of new technology is always high, so self balancing boards have been pretty expensive thus far. Fortunately, lately there have been a number of new manufacturers who have entered the market with more affordable self balancing scooters.

The prices vary greatly now—from $250 to $800.
