"IT" (codenamed "Ginger"
😉, is a supposed "world-changing" invention by legendary inventor Dean Kamen. IT, however, is nothing more than a scooter - not just any scooter though - this one can travel very fast, and is nearly impossible to tip over. IT can also travel on virtually any surface: grass, sand, paved and dirt roads.
The greatest part about the invention, however, is the engine. It's powered by a hydrogen engine, which is much more quiet, efficient, and pollution free (emits only water) than a typical gas engine. Such a device could possibly be put into cars, and power electric plants. This in itself could easily change the world.
There's a lot of websites out there dedicated to the subject (first that comes to mind is
The IT Question), and you might also want to check out the latest issue of
Inside magazine (they have a fairly large article detailing "IT"
😉.
