  1. By: Serge Renaud Skander Souissi Olivier Fauteux-Brault SEGBOARD

  2. Objectives • Build a one wheel skateboard that balances itself. • Forward and reverse capabilities. • Control the speed and the direction of the skateboard by shifting your weight forward or backward • Learn more about various electrical components • Programming of microcontroller

  3. Steps • Design the skateboard and identify the needs, both electrical and mechanical. • Understand how the OSMC motor controller works. • Understanding how the Arduino works. • Programming: how to acquires different inputs from sensor, how to treat the inputs to get the desirable outputs. • Building the board itself • Testing and calibration

  4. Accomplishments (so far) • Identified needed components to acheive our goal. • Understanding the functionnality of the Open Source Motor Controller and microcontroller. • Programming the arduino board. • Make the motor reacts with the change of angles given by the accelerometer. • Implementing safety measures.

  5. Electrical components

  6. Electrical components • OSMC : control the motor power and direction • Arduino: control the OSCM and motor speed • Gyroscope: convert physical signal to analog • Motor: 24V,ungeared DC motor, 4000rpmapprox .70 horsepower (MAX)

  7. Mechanical Components

  8. Mechanical Components (list) • Go kart wheel • Bearings • Sprockets • Chain • Hubs • Axel • Sheet metal (frame) • Angle irons

  9. Programming • Motor turns as a function of the change in angle • Board doesn’t start until leveled • If the angle is too great the board cuts off and needs to be leveled again to regain its functionality • If the occupant falls off, the board will stop once leveled

  10. Improvements • Occupancy sensors that act like an on/off switch. • Lighter versions to maximize efficiency. • Knob to set the sensitivity. • Knob leveling control (be able go uphill / downhill ).
