摘要： Some implementations can include a zero turn radius utility vehicle that is operated in a standing position by an operator using foot controls provided on the utility vehicle. Accordingly, the operator's hands are free to operate handheld equipment (e.g., a line trimmer, edger, blower, etc.) while the operator controls the utility vehicle via the foot controls. Further, the utility vehicle may have a single third wheel (and no mower deck or other deck or protrusion) extending from the front of the vehicle frame so as to minimize any protrusions to the front of the vehicle, which can permit the operator to work on the ground in front of the utility vehicle using handheld equipment without interference from a mower deck, while remaining in a standing position on the utility vehicle and being able to simultaneously control the utility vehicle (via foot controls) and perform work with handheld equipment.

摘要： Method and apparatus directed to cushioned traction pads for self-balancing vehicles. The method and apparatus is comprised of a front cushioned traction pad that has a top surface and a bottom surface; attaching the bottom surface of the front cushioned traction pad to a first deck portion disposed at a first end of a frame, the top surface of the front cushioned traction pad configured to receive a left or right foot of a rider; selecting a rear cushioned traction pad that has a top surface and a bottom surface. The top surface of the rear cushioned traction pad further has a rear kicktail extending integrally upwardly and rearwardly. The method and apparatus further include attaching the bottom surface of the rear cushioned traction pad to a second deck portion disposed at a second end of the frame for receiving the left or right foot of a rider.

摘要： An example implementation includes a robotic system including a first wheel and a second wheel configured to rotate about a first axis. Each wheel of the first wheel and the second wheel includes a contact surface and a motor coupled to a rotatable component. Each motor is configured to rotate the rotatable component about a respective second axis. The rotatable component is frictionally engaged with the contact surface such that a rotation of the rotatable component about the respective second axis is translated to a rotation of the wheel about the first axis. The robotic system further includes a controller configured to operate the motor of the first wheel and the motor of the second wheel in order to cause the robotic system to maintain its balance and navigate within an environment based on data received from one or more sensors.

摘要： An apparatus controller for prompting a rider to be positioned on a vehicle in such a manner as to reduce lateral instability due to lateral acceleration of the vehicle. The apparatus has an input for receiving specification from the rider of a desired direction of travel, and indicating means for reflecting to the rider a propitious instantaneous body orientation to enhance stability in the face of lateral acceleration. The indicating may include a handlebar that is pivotable with respect to the vehicle and that is driven in response to vehicle turning.

摘要： An electric vehicle may comprise a board including deck portions each configured to receive a foot of a rider, and a wheel assembly disposed between the deck portions. A motor assembly may be mounted to the board and configured to propel the electric vehicle using the wheel assembly. At least one orientation sensor may be configured to measure orientation information of the board, and at least one pressure-sensing transducer may be configured to determine rider presence information. A motor controller may be configured to receive the orientation information and the rider presence information, and to cause the motor assembly to propel the electric vehicle based on the orientation and presence information.
