Abstract:
An electric vehicle may comprise a board including deck portions each configured to receive a foot of a rider, and a wheel assembly disposed between the deck portions. A motor assembly may be mounted to the board and configured to propel the electric vehicle using the wheel assembly. At least one orientation sensor may be configured to measure orientation information of the board, and at least one pressure-sensing transducer may be configured to determine rider presence information. A motor controller may be configured to receive the orientation information and the rider presence information, and to cause the motor assembly to propel the electric vehicle based on the orientation and presence information.

Claim (Index 15):
A rider detection device for a self-balancing electric vehicle, comprising:\n first and second pressure sensing transducers encased in a waterproof enclosure and configured to be disposed within a deck portion of an electric vehicle, the pressure sensing transducers arranged such that the first pressure sensing transducer has an active area configured to register with a toe portion of a rider's foot and the second pressure sensing transducer has an active area configured to register with a heel portion of the rider's foot, the first and second active areas configured to sense rider presence information based on one or more forces applied to the deck portion by the rider's foot; and an electrical connector configured to communicate the rider presence information to a motor controller based on outputs of the first and second pressure sensing transducers.
