The hoverboard uses Dynamic equilibrium, using internal gyroscope and acceleration sensors. The status of
the hoverboard is controlled by the center-of gravity. It is adjusted by motor, which is controlled by the servo
control system. When you lean forward, it will sense your actions to accelerate. When you need to turn, slow it
down and move your foot forwards or backwards then the center-of gravity of the body moves left or right
therefore the hooverboard can sense moving left or right.
-
The hooverboard has inertial dynamic stabilization system, so it can keep anterior-posterior balance but
cannot guarantee the left and right. So when turning, the scooter needs to be operated slowing, otherwise,
you may be injured.
2.4. Learn how to use it
Step 1: Press the power button to turn on the hoverboard.
Step 2: Put the hoverboard on a flat ground and make sure all safety measures are taken. Put one foot on the pad
that will trigger the pedal switch to turn on the operation indicator, after the system enters the selfbalancing mode,
put the other foot on the pad.
Step 3: Take control of the hoverboard
s’ forwards or backwards, do remember the movement of your body should
not be abrupt.
If you are not in a balanced condition when you trigger the foot-switch, the buzzer will alarm, and the warning LED
will light. The system is not in a self-balanced condition. Without a balanced condition, you should not operate the
hoverboard. Then you need to calibrate the sensors, see point 2.2.
Step 4: Control the left and right direction of the hoverboard.
Step 5: Before you get off, make sure that the hoverboard is still in balanced condition and stopped, then step off
one foot, then the other foot.
