Segway electric vehicle

摘要

This paper presents the design, fabrication and control of the Segway human transporter; a two-wheeled, self-balancing electric vehicle. We aim at producing a fully-operational Segway vehicle with a compact design which caters for shock absorption on rough terrains and includes an improved control system. The vehicle has a top speed of 13 km/h, a load capacity of over 2000N and a balancing time of less than 2 seconds.
