A concave footpad integrates a membrane switch to detect rider pressure and orientation on a self-propelled one-wheeled vehicle.
Insert portions bonded into insertion holes compensate for thermal deformation during assembly, eliminating post-bonding corrections.
A control unit adjusts lateral travel velocities of an inverted pendulum vehicle using a limitation processing unit to restrict velocity differences.
A two-wheeled vehicle uses hand poles for propulsion while rider weight shifts on a saddle and footholds maintain balance without handlebars.
An angled wheel holder and shock absorber dampen motion over uneven surfaces, resolving stability versus complexity trade-offs.
A swingarm and parallel shock absorber isolate the frame from uneven terrain vibrations.
