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 1):
A rider detection system for an electric vehicle, comprising:\n a sensor unit configured to be coupled to a board of an electric vehicle and to detect a rider's foot contacting the board, the sensor unit including two sensor zones laterally spaced from each other such that a first of the two sensor zones registers with a toe portion of the rider's foot and a second of the two sensor zones registers with a heel portion of the rider's foot; and an electrical connector configured to communicate rider presence information to a motor controller based on outputs of the two sensor zones.
