Wheelchair+Wheel

Could a monowheel and a Segway be combined into an omni-wheel mobility device?

Putting wheels on chairs is one solution, but what if a chair was put on a wheel? How might this idea be made useful? A chair first had a stationary function and wheels were put on to make it move. A wheel's first function is to move, so putting a chair on a wheel may have some benefits over putting wheels on a chair.

How might a monowheel and a Segway be combined into an omni-wheel mobility device? Combine the next four images.

Here is a wheel with a chair.

Add a ring of Segways around the wheel.

Could an omni Wheel like this be made into a small mobility device?

Here is a Segway monowheel.

Put a motorized seat inside the ring of Segways above to get a Segway Monowheel.

How does one prototype a ring of seqways? Maybe with Lego robots.
