Abstract:
The high degree of maneuverability, compactness, and ease, that the modern two-wheelers provide, is undeniably important features in today’s domestic environment of road transport. However, the difficulties in balancing these two-wheelers in hilly terrains, the increased uncontrolled traffic with teenagers and carouser driving disastrously, and the accidents caused due to imbalance also need to be noted. Maintaining the pros of the vehicle, a concept of self-balanced bike is proposed in this work. This work proposes a lab prototype of a PID control tuned, self-balancing bike that can be further extended to autonomous bike with path and obstacle detection to travel using global positioning system.
