Scooter desk

A project log for Silly hardware wishlist

Too simple for a project page & which may never happen.

Got to thinking about a scooter that transformed into a standing desk, but could fit in a form factor right in front of you. It would be supported by your legs or something.  A strap could also go around the lion's hip, minimizing the base it required.

The laptop could be fastened to the top without having a full table.  There are already scooters with castor wheels extending from the deck, allowing them to stand upright.  It's kind of ridiculous for a 2 wheeled vehicle to have 2 extra wheels just for standing up.  

1 idea is for the handlebars to form the table.  This would require the original handle to extend above the deck & make it top heavy.  Another idea is for the handlebars to form the base.  The handle would fold against the deck & the extension above would be entirely carbon fiber.  

The mane problem is if the laptop is attached to the scooter, tipping over would destroy it.

This is still not as ideal as a wearable computer.
