I feel like there was a missed opportunity to use some of the spare computing power on the desk to add some helpful navigational autonomy. Like using a backward facing web camera for lane assist, obstacle avoidance, route following, etc. Could leverage something open source like Autoware.org to get most of the way there.

    Wolfram uses a walking desk but it’s more of a laptop support like a baby bjorn. I kind of want one but looks like they need a bit of customizing.

      There are also under-desk treadmills that you can use with an existing standing desk. You need to be able to raise it a bit higher though.

        The point would be to be outside. Were traveling right now and I can’t find the link but if you search for wolphrams life hacks type of thing there’s an article he wrote about it which was a fascinating read.

        Personally I have an elliptical at home with a laptop stand on it and I love it.
