Picture (the only one I could find) here http://www.golf-month...oadcast-coverage.html Thinking, does it work on the principle of the Honda Mobile Chair on this site sent to me YouTube - U3-X Personal Mobility Prototype .
Oh right...
The thing the bloke is standing on is a segway
http://www.segway.com/
which are gyro stabilised, computer controlled buggies (for want of another word!) the cameraman is also holding the camera in another gryo stabilised camera mount. it's obviously raining that day because the camera has the waterproof cover on it, but you can just see the clip on wireless transmitter and more visible is the aerial on the top of the camera.
