Design and Development of Self Balancing Vehicle

Abstract

Abstract: The project work outlines the design and development of a self-balancing vehicle. The project aimed to create a compact, lightweight, and energy-efficient vehicle that could maintain balance without the need for a rider's input. The prototype was built using a combination of electronic components, sensors, and programming algorithms that allowed the vehicle to maintain balance. The design process involved extensive research on similar vehicles and their components, as well as experimentation with various designs to determine the most efficient and effective approach. Once the design was finalized, the development phase began, with the construction of the vehicle's frame and the integration of the various electronic components. The vehicle's balancing system was developed using a combination of gyroscopes, and a microcontroller that processed data from these sensors to adjust the vehicle's balance. Additionally, the vehicle was equipped with a motor and a battery to allow for movement. During testing, the model was able to maintain balance. The vehicle's energy consumption was also significantly lower than that of similar vehicles, making it an efficient and environmentally-friendly mode of transportation. Overall, the project was successful in achieving its goals of designing and developing a self-balancing vehicle. With further refinement and testing, the vehicle has the potential to become a viable mode of transportation for short distances in urban environments.
