The original prototype of the robot was debuted at the international Consumer Electronics Show (CES) early last year in Las Vegas.

The core business of the startup has then expanded to two main categories: Segway PT (Personal Transportation) and Segway Robotics.

An artificial intelligence system was installed in the robot to establish look, listening and speaking skills by Intel's computing unit and a variety of sensors, such as RealSense depth perception sensor and microphone array sensor.

On the hardware side, Segway Robot provides a hardware extension bay that connects to additional accessories.

During this year's CES, the company collaborated with BMW to deploy a customized parking assistant service for the latter's vehicles.
