Our idea
The goal of this project is to design and implement a self-balancing motorcycle that combines software engineering and mechanical engineering disciplines. The system aims to create a self-balancing motorcycle that can stand upright while stationary and while in motion. We aim to accomplish this through a gyroscopic stabilator
Software Role
In this project, the role of the software engineering students is to develop the intelligent control system that serves as the core of the motorcycle’s self-balancing functionality. Our main goal is to gain comprehensive knowledge and experience in embedded software development by designing and implementing a real time control algorithm that processes data from sensors such as an IMU and outputs commands to the stabilizing mechanism. We aim to strengthen our competency in system integration, learning how to connect and manage communication between different hardware components like a microcontroller and an ECU(Electronic Control Unit).
Mechanical’s role
In this project, the role of mechanical engineering students is to design and develop the structural and mechanical aspects of the self-balancing motorbike prototype. Our work focuses on ensuring that all mechanical components are secure, reliable, and capable of supporting the prototype’s operation. Additionally, we aim to incorporate as many real components as possible to make the prototype a functional representation of a real motorbike. The mechanical design provides the foundation for the integration of electronics and control systems, allowing the prototype to balance, move, and respond to control inputs. Through this project, we gain hands-on experience in CAD modeling, material selection, mechanical assembly, and prototype development, demonstrating the practical application of mechanical engineering principles.
