MIT Alumni Association Technology Day 2004 "Shifting Gears" presents Ernest J. Moniz Professor of Physics, Director of Energy Studies, MIT "Oil, Security, Environment, Technology" Dean Kamen "The Segway Alternative" As the price of oil tops $50 a barrel, Moniz describes a range of new factors that affect supply and demand, and offers key objectives for consideration in US energy policy. Later, inventor Dean Kamen delivers an overview of the history of the Segway, while riding one across the stage at Kresge. The invention of the Segway and its eventual adoption as a viable transportation mode will require systemic change, which Kamen argues is a change in thinking about transportation, cities and urban design.
