Abstract:
1. A motorized land board and wireless controller system, said motorized land board comprising: a board structure defining a front section and a back section and a top surface and an opposing bottom surface defining the general shape of a skateboard, wherein a first set of wheels is mechanically associated with the bottom of the front section and as second set of wheels is mechanically associated with the bottom of the back section; a motor disposed along said back section wherein the output of said motor is mechanically associated with at least one wheel of said second set of wheels, said motor comprising a motor-throttle for controlling the output power of said motor; a controller mechanically associated with at least one of (a) said back section, (b) said front section, and (c) said motor, said controller comprising: (a) a processor electrically associated with a memory; (b) a receiver electrically associated with said processor and an antenna, said receiver configured for receiving a data-signal from an remote transmitter and transfer at least part of such data-signal to said processor; (c) a throttle controller electrically associated with said processor and mechanically associated with said motor-throttle, (d) a power source electrically associated with at least one of said processor, receiver, and said throttle controller; wherein said processor is configured to generate throttle control signals based at least in part on a received data-signal, wherein said throttle control signals cause the throttle controller to manipulate said motor-throttle; and an user interface configured for being associated with a user without being held in the user's hand, said user interface comprising a communication module comprising a transmitter in wireless communication with said controller, said user interface configured to generate and transmit said data-signal in response to a user hand movement.
