Design and Fabrication of Electric Unicycle

V.Rajesh, Madhu B, Karthick R, Karthirvel S, Vignesh S, Adithya G

The increasing demand for compact and eco-friendly transportation has driven the development of the electric unicycle (e-unicycle), a single-wheeled electric vehicle gaining popularity for short-distance travel. This mini-project explores the e-unicycle's potential as a sustainable and efficient mode of transportation. The e-unicycle's design typically features an electric motor, balancing mechanisms, and foot platforms for rider control, offering clean and quiet operation compared to traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. Riders control the e-unicycle by leaning forward or backward, making it ideal for short to medium-distance commutes, recreation, and exercise. The compact size of e-unicycles reduces parking space requirements and facilitates navigation in congested areas. This project addresses the learning curve for riding an e-unicycle, along with benefits such as portability and potential for recreational use. Additionally, it explores the integration of battery management systems to optimize energy efficiency. Overall, this abstract highlight the e-unicycle as an emerging transportation option with eco-friendly qualities and unique maneuverability, making it a promising solution for short-distance commuting.
