Loomo Segway Support?
Update: I know I posted the question without good information of what I am attempting.
My final goal is to use Loomo to tow a UVC Rig that will use UVC lights to disinfect places. These UVC carts can be push around (manual version), or towed with Loomo (Autonomous). Loomos will be connected to Exosphere for routes to be completed every night when the places are closed.

I think what we can do is whip up an Android app that runs on the device and converts it into an EZB - it exposes a TCP connection for ARC to connect to. This is similar to how the Ohmnilab telepresence robot or Raspberry Pi EZB Server works.
Sound like a Plan, Who can do this?
I noticed that your photo has a platform attached to the loomo. What is it and where did you get it
It’s a Loomo delivery platform we found on the web, we could not find it to buy so we are actually building it ourselves. Prototype will be ready this week.
Found this also Android Loomo ROS Core
This repo allows you to connect a Loomo robot to an host PC running ROS. It exposes a number of the Loomo's sensors to ROS in ways that are compatible with the ROS Navigation stack. https://github.com/skalldri/android_loomo_ros_core
I assume that because it is in the front it can move a good load. I tried to attach sometime at the back and it could not carry any load
