This powered unicycle called the Embrio Advanced Concept, was designed by Canadian recreational vehicle company Bombardier, and is said to represent a vision of commuting fun from 2025.

With a riding position similar to that of a traditional two-wheeled motorcycle, the Embrio concept uses a system of gyroscopes and sensors to balance up to two passengers while on the move. The strange bike is also able to keep stable at low speeds, and while motionless, thanks to a pair of two small wheels that deploy when the pace drops below 12.5 mph. There are triggers on the left and right handlebars that accelerate and brake the vehicle, and riders turn by leaning to the left or right.

The Embrio is also aimed at a greener future for commuters, and is motivated by an electric motor running on hydrogen power. Take a closer look at the Embrio with our gallery below, and then tell us what you think of the bike in comments.
