Abstract

Bicycles are used virtually everywhere, and for many applications; transportation, recreation and exercise. Their dynamic behavior is statically unstable like the inverted pendulum. In this paper, we developed an intelligent electric bicycle based on fuzzy logic and single chip approach. We chose the PSoC (programmable system-on-chips) as the microprocessor. The key point is to adjust the PWM (pulse width modulation) signal to control the speed of the bicycle, automatically. With this method we hope one can ride the bicycle easily, whether the road is level or steep
