The work at www.electricunicycle.com never stops. The latest vehicle to emerge from them is the LEVISKATE one-wheel skateboard. Leveraging the evolved electric unicycle balancing technology, this vehicle offers amazing stability and ease of operation

  • fake

  • Stay in school. Science can make the "impossible" real.

  • Take a mini hovercraft that a person rides like a skate board. THen add segway tech to this device. Now it is steered by shifting body weight alone. Also speed is controlled the same way. Forget about electric motors or fuel efficiency for now.

  • You may have missed the point. This IS driven by shifting body weight ALONE. Please see the Leviskate in operation video.

  • Could you post some video of this being ridden?

  • Hi Ben, Got the 4-layer 2-sided 3x5" SMT motor/tilt controller I designed in PADS last week back from 4PCB. The VHDL and AVR code is coming along well. Give me a few more weeks to bring it up and tune the PID -- most of the work is already done and validated on the unicycle (including KALMAN and OVERSPEED TILT BACK) Great job on yours! I posted a link to you on my website.

  • where did u buy that?????

  • for grip on the top i would advise some griptape instead of diamond sheet plating.

  • BC comic strip had a one wheeled vehicle where the rider rode on the axles. ONe foot per side of the wheel. Granted that was silliness of a comic strip author. But you have just got one step closer to BC comics. Segway tech needs to be applied in two dimension for BC comics to be a reality. Let's see you do that.

  • Cheers for the link - have you seen that "colemanhammer" has made one too?!

    Do you have a motor speed sensor on yours? What signal do you use for the overspeed tilt back? I've tried with the integral and things get a little unstable!
