Abstract–This paper presents the idea of the ”Controlling
than driving a car. After one year on your segway personal transport you would have literally saved a ton of co 2 released into the atmosphere. The Personal Transport (PT) Vehicle is a vehicle which has two coaxial wheels driven independently by a motor. If the rider accelerates the accelerator, the speed of motor increases and if rider reaccelerated the accelerator, then speed of motor decreases to obtain balancing. Turning is done with the help of limit switches which are connected to the handle bar of PTV. It is robust enough to accept riders of different weights and responsive enough to provide adequate balancing for different riders and riding styles.
Of personal Transport Vehicle”. As the price of petroleum products shoots up, there is an imminent need for cheaper and more efficient form of transport. Even major industries and factories that span over large areas restrict the use of transport by their employees within their premises to avoid the risk of contamination due to emissions. Manufacturers have a great need for competence in the field of hybrid vehicle technology or even fully electrical vehicle technology as a step towards fulfilling these goals. These new vehicles are complex machines and require engineering competence in many fields; mechanics, vehicle dynamics, automatic control, power electronics, battery technology, software engineering, network and communication engineering to name a few. The above problem and that of space constraints is overcome with the concept of personal transport vehicle.
1.1 Proposed Work To overcome the disadvantage of present methods of personal transporting, we are going to develop a controlling system of a personal transport vehicle which will reduce the use of fossile fuel vehicles. For controlling purpose we are using arduino uno board. The arduino receives inputs from the accelerator and two limit switches. Out of the two limit switches, one limit switch is connected at right side and one is connected at the left side. The accelerator is used for changing the speed and limit switches are used for turning purpose. According to the signals which are given to the arduino board from the accelerator or limit switches, the arduino uno controls the vehicle. The controlled output signals from the arduino uno are given to the motor drivers of the vehicle. The motor drivers receive the signals from the arduino board and according to that signals the motor driver controls the speed of the motor.
Key Words: (Arduino uno board, dc motors, motor drivers, batteries, accelerator, limit switches)
1 INTRODUCTION In our daily life when we have to travel a small distance i.e. about 20 Km we use two wheeler vehicle which is not economical as well as creates pollution in the environment which is dangerous to human life. It has also harmful effects on animals. So, someone needs to take care of humans as well as animals. So to overcome above problems we are going to design a self-balancing vehicle for Personal Transport as well as it can be used in shopping malls, in non-polluting zone, in the industry for material transport. If we are able to replace 10% of 900 million 3 mile car trips with an eco-friendly personal transport. There would be 6.2 million fewer gallons of gas consumed 286 million fewer pounds of co2 emitted every day. It does draw electric power during recharge, but that electricity causes 14 times less greenhouse gas emission
