I've been pondering how to put this all together in one article, and am tired of these sitting in my writing queue. As such, this will be a pretty course overview.

Link - A fuel-cell powered three-wheel self-balancing "motorcycle". It appears this is only a concept vehicle and won't be sold any time soon. Nor does there even appear to be a prototype yet.

Link - A motorcycle with a wide two-wheel front end. Tilt-assisted steering enhances performance and safety. As-pictured, it appears to be for off-road use only. It's scheduled for release in Summer 2007.

Link - A 3-wheeled car. Non-hybrid. Tilt steering. Computer-enhanced suspension. It looks like this won't make it to market, at least in its current incarnation.

Link - A 3-wheeled scooter.

Link - A 3-wheeled motorcycle. Electric motor in the rear wheel.

Link - A 3-wheeled hybrid sports car. Over-powered gas engine, plus an electric motor in each wheel.

Link - 3-wheeled electric trike. The battery and motor are essentially invisible. Very cool design. Runs at 10mph for 4 hours.

This is a fun site that demonstrates the power of neural network artificial intelligence.

20Q sets you against a computer in a game of twenty questions. If you answer the questions accurately, it will probably figure out your item by the time it gets to its twentieth question.

Good luck!

I came across this web page and was compelled to share it. The media is so basic, simple, and commonplace, yet it is rarely used. Moreover, the pure rich color stands out in contrast to many of the angular and mechanical forms presented.

Perhaps what is most enthralling is simply childhood memories of coloring with Crayons.
