Cool linux wheelchair

Well if you have to be in a wheelchair, at least let it be a self guiding realtime linux driven one:

Too bad they use windows for image processing, it would probably have been more stable on Linux.
Well at least the driving part is Linux.

specs:

2 DD Motors, Weight: approximately 90Kg
CPU: Pentium D 950 3.4GHz(Windows) and Pentium M 1.7GHz(RTLinux)
OS: Windows for Image Processing , RT-Linux for Motor Controller
