Electric bike has wheels side by side

I saw this in the NY Times:
Ben Gulak, a freshman at M.I.T., going for a spin on his Uno, an electric motorcycle that has side-by-side wheels and achieves balance using a gyroscope.
and it occurred to me that Mr. Smarty-Pants MIT doesn't have the common sense to wear a helmet on that contraption? If ever something looked like it would give you a solid face-plant, that thing does.

why would one need a helmet? that thing looks as safe as a blind man operating a wrecking ball

We did a thread on this once. It's a hacked Segway with some squid parts. It goes like 13.
