    摘要: A device and method for providing yaw control for a balancing transporter that has two laterally disposed ground-contacting wheels. The method has the steps of receiving a user input of a desired yaw value; comparing an instantaneous yaw value with the desired yaw value to generate a yaw error value; processing the yaw error value to obtain a yaw command signal; and applying the yaw command signal in conjunction with a pitch command signal based on a pitch error in such a manner as to maintain balance of the transporter in the course of executing yaw control. The yaw command signal may include component terms quadratic in the pitch error and/or a function of a common wheel rotational velocity. A control input mechanism is wirelessly coupled to the controller of the balancing transporter so as to maintain the sealed integrity of a user interface.

    摘要: A system for controlling power in a remote signalling device includes an electronic controller, a transmitter portion and a signal conditioning portion. The electronic controller preferably determines the characteristics of the desired transmitted signal and provides information regarding those characteristics to the transmitter portion. The electronic controller also provides a power control signal to the transmitter portion. The controller determines the characteristics of the power control signal depending on the characteristics of the desired transmitted signal and other preselected factors. The power control signal preferably is processed by the signal conditioning portion so that it provides the desired voltage to the transmitter portion. The power control signal regulates the signal strength from the transmitter portion so that more consistent and effective communications are provided to accommodate a variety of transmitted signals and varying operating conditions over the life of the remote signalling device.
