BEHOLD THE MEGA WHEELIE A HUGE ONE WHEELED ELECTRIC SKATEBOARD

BEHOLD THE MEGA-WHEELIE, A HUGE ONE-WHEELED ELECTRIC SKATEBOARD

DIY electric personal vehicles are a field where even hobbyists can meaningfully innovate, and that’s demonstrated by the Mega-Wheelie, a self-balancing one-wheeled skateboard constructed as an experiment in traversing off-road conditions. [John Dingley] and [Nick Thatcher] have been building and testing self-balancing electric vehicles since 2008, with a beach being a common testing ground. They suspected […]

Self-balancing skateboard/segw*y project Arduino Shield

General purpose Arduino shield for self-balancing machines. Why did I make it? I previously made an Instructable in 2010 on how to build a self-balancing skateboard. http://www.instructables.com/id/Easy-build-self-balancing-skateboardrobotsegway-/ There are >500 comments on this and many express confusion setting up the balance sensors, software and electronics. On top of that, the analog output inertial measurement units

LED Skateboard Rubiks Cube

LED Skateboard Rubiks Cube

This project uses LED lights controlled by an accelerometer and gyroscope to challenge your skateboarding creativity. The LED lights change according to what trick is being performed. For example, a shuvit (180-degree yaw rotation) changes the lights blue. a kickflip (360-degree roll) changes the color to red. when both tricks are done simultaneously (varial flip)
