I'm having a brain fart what do you call these things?

I'm having a brain fart what do you call these things?
Here's the story.
I have a buddy with M.S. and his legs are starting to go.
We had talked about a sidecar rig for his '09 Ultra, but he just can't seem to find a nice one.
Next was a trike kit, but he's nixed that idea.
I've seem these wheels that slide into a hitch on the back of your bike, so there is a wheel on each side, I'd like to look into those, but for the life of me, I just can't seem to recall there name or a web site.
I remember looking for a set on E bay to attach to a bike to ride later in the winter, (and may still do that).
But I just can't recall it's name.
Can anyone help me out??

Awesome, I have never seen anything like this,if it will keep someone riding right on. It's cool what people can come up with.

That is pretty cool but I would have reservations about riding with the wheels down. Mainly, imagine how fast those little buggers will be spinning. I wonder how long the bearings for them would last. Also, as you lean, it doesn't appear that the wheels pivot to keep the flat of the wheel on the road surface, rather the outside edge is taking the brunt of the weight and would likely wear quickly.
But still, all-in-all, a good system for those with leg mobility problems.
I think a few people stopping behind one of these at a stop, and not noticing the wheels, would be amazed at the rider's ability to sit through a complete rotation of light changes...without putting a foot down.
