dc.description.abstractSegway was once a mysterious invention created by Dean Kamen. The Segway Human Transporter is a personal transport device that uses a built-in computer to remain upright. The aim of this project is to mimic the design of the Segway and build a low cost DIY Segway. The first stage of this project is to design the mechanical structure of the transport device. According to different power and functional requirements, different mechanical and electronic components have been chosen for the implementation. The rider shifting weight and a manual turning mechanism on the handlebar are used to control the speed and direction of the Segway. Gyroscope and variable resistor are used to monitor user’s physical motion. The control board used in this project is an Arduino ATMEGA2560. A control software for monitoring the sensor readings, calculating PID and also outputting motor speed values has been developed. The two motors are controlled by a Maxon power board which receive signal from a purposely built DAC board. The control board varies the Segway speed by sending required data to the DAC board.en_US
