@stuartyeates @OliviaVespera @kaiiak I estimated p=1 that somebody mentioned the obvious community supporting this.

[itnomad@ruhr.social]

@kaiiak As someone with cerebral palsy, some serious balance problems, a history of nasty tripping accidents and life-longe love with dinosaurs: HELL YES TAKE MY MONEY

[naima@meow.social]

@kaiiak i have trouble balancing now... can i have one?

[krazov@mstdn.social]

@kaiiak Aye!

[korawolfsrain@meow.social]

@uint8_t @kaiiak it is, but if its already in mass production and affortable is another question

[cinnamon@mk.absturztau.be]

@kaiiak@madverse.city Is that device also useful to make roller skate backwards fallings softer? ​​

[tiredbun@akko.wtf]

@kaiiak That looks pretty similar to astronaut tail concept (mechanical tail to position yourself in zero gravity, though it was designer student concept, so I am not sure if it would be effective)

[notthatdelta@furry.engineer]

@kaiiak In a heartbeat, and I'd never take it off!

[kit@m.tripulse.link]

@kaiiak@madverse.city without hesitation, but for two reasons
1: tail
2: I could actually use this for its intended purpose and quit using a cane

[luistrenado@frikiverse.zone]

@kaiiak
Jonah J. Jameson and Mac Gargan approve this.

[pyrus@dragonchat.org]

@kaiiak I'll take 3

[earsmeardius@mastodon.social]

@kaiiak Furries have entered the chat.

[dad@mastodon.mim-libre.fr]

@kaiiak a must have for many furries

[curemaple@meow.lgbt]

@kaiiak wait that looks like that tail from that one early 2000's robot dino toy

[dasgrueneblatt@wien.rocks]

@kaiiak Oh yes! Unfortunately, it's still a prototype that's rather different from the picture.

[catraxx@tech.lgbt]

@kaiiak yes

[pinchy63@ottawa.place]

@kaiiak
Take my money!!!

[zetasyanthis@dragon.style]

@kaiiak I expect wings to be created for the same purpose!

@kaiiak@madverse.city If anyone's wondering where this is from: https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3306214.3338573

(no i dont know why it bubbled into science journalism in 2026)

@kaiiak

Hell yes AND add a taser-tip. Or flashing LED panels for each segment.
