Abstract

This paper discusses the procedure and steps followed to design and develop an electric hover-board. The design for the mechanical chassis, an approach to calculate the required motor power rating depending on the load, the possibilities of using different motors, methods to control the rotation of the BLDC motor and closed speed control algorithms for BLDC motor are all presented. Design and development of motor driver required to build a hover board is also discussed. The development of motor driver includes design of inverter, DC-DC converter, level shifter and fabrication of the PCB. On completion of fabrication, the motor is tested for open loop control and closed loop control using hysteresis. The device was to move using motorized wheels and would be able to turn using swivel caster wheels. The batteries were to be mounted on the device underneath the device next to the wheels and off theground, or otherwise concealed from the audience. The device was to be controlled via either remote control by another person or via switches by the user. A hover board has two large wheels separated by a long board, is powered by battery and electricity, and allows riders to move across the ground without pedaling or pushing off with their feet. Self-balancing electric scooters, commonly known as hover boards, are a new and popular consumer item with recognized fall hazards
