BuzzBall is a Powered Hamster Ball For People

buzzball_062808

We’ve seen large balls that you ride inside of before, but this is something different. The BuzzBall actually has its own power supply, so a hill is not a requirement to go rolling.  A pair of electric motors create the movement, one powering the ball, the other the chair.

Since it has its own motor, the chair can be used in conjunction with the ball motor to move the ball in the direction of choice, or it can be used to spin the chair against the bal movement, creating some hairy spins and turns.  This might explain why the chair incorporates a full five point racing harness.

The BuzzBall is made from 12 individual panels, so if you somehow manage to smack it against something hard, replacing panels is a simple operation.  Not that you would intentionally aim for something to crash against, but it could be that you are a bit disoriented at the time.

You may have to wait before you can hop in a BuzzBall and go for a literal spin, as it is not for sale as of this writing. However, Evento is determined to bring it to the market.
