Jazz bassist Ron Carter and inventor Dean Kamen on this edition of Fresh Air. Carter has more than two thousand recordings to his credit as well as a new CD, The Golden Striker. From 1963-1968 he was part of the Miles Davis Quintet with Herbie Hancock, Tony Williams, and Wayne Shorter. Over the years he's played with Randy Weston, Herbie Mann, Betty Carter, Eric Dolphy, Sony Rollins, McCoy Tyner and others.

Kamen invented the Segway Human Transporter, a high-tech scooter. The scooter relies on sensors, solid-state gyroscopes, and software to produce a balanced ride even over rough terrain. The price tag is around $5,000. Kamen's other inventions include a portable drug-infusion pump, a compact dialysis machine, and a wheelchair that can climb stairs. Kamen heads DEKA Research & Development Corporation in New Hampshire. (Original Broadcast Dates: October 15, 2002 and February 10, 2003)
