<strong>Segway</strong> PT Components and<br />

Subsystems<br />

The <strong>Segway</strong> PT includes the following components and subsystems<br />

(see Figure 5):<br />

• InfoKey Controller<br />

• InfoKey Controller Dock<br />

• Handlebar<br />

• LeanSteer Frame<br />

• Tire/Wheel Assembly and Fenders<br />

• Console with Charge and Balance Indicator Lights<br />

• Console Trim<br />

• Mats<br />

• Powerbase<br />

• Batteries<br />

The <strong>Segway</strong> PT has been designed with concern for the safety of the<br />

rider and those who may be nearby. Redundant subsystems maintain<br />

controlled operation of the <strong>Segway</strong> PT in the unlikely event of a<br />

component failure. If one component in a subsystem fails, the other<br />

component continues to operate, allowing you to come to a complete<br />

and safe stop before stepping off. The <strong>Segway</strong> PT has five redundant<br />

subsystems: Controller Boards, Motors, Batteries, the Balance<br />

Sensor Assembly, and LeanSteer Sensors.<br />
