A hollow cylinder with motors at the bottom that move 3 weights at the top that dynamically shift based on a gyro and accelerometer to compensate for tilt. The weights would be on carbon fiber rods connected to a motor mechanism at the bottom. Imagine a mechanism like an analog clock at the bottom that moves the weights around the circle of the top of the cylinder. The weights could be positioned equally distributed around the circle or they could all be shifted to one side of the pole depending on the need. This would be cool and useless at the same time.
