Abstract

See full text

A vehicle for the movement of a driver includes a rolling element, a carrier element supported by the rolling element, a drive arrangement supported by the carrier element and configured to drive the rolling element, and a control unit, by way of which the drive arrangement is steered in a desired travel direction depending on the inclination of the carrier element and the inclination direction of the carrier element. The vehicle is configured such that during operation of the vehicle, the driver stands freely and balances on the carrier element. In a particular embodiment, the rolling element rolling is a ball and the vehicle can be moved in any desired travel direction via the drive arrangement, with the driver being in contact with the vehicle exclusively by way of the driver's feet, and as the case may be, further by way of the driver's lower legs.
