Tobi Wankenobi Posted January 7, 2024 Posted January 7, 2024 Arctic Monowheel Imagine the huge flat arctic snow-fields. Not every way is difficult to manage and needs a tracked vehicle. Some missions just require a transport to go fast. The Arctic Monowheel is the vehicle of choice, when tracked vehicles are too slow and weather conditions do not allow to fly. Functions The Arctic Monowheel features: Remote control with proportional steering and speed control Working Stoplights Electronic Stabiliy Control. The Arctic Monowheel is driven by two XL motors, one for the left wheel, one for the right wheel. Both motors as well as the stoplights are controlled by a PU Technic hub. As monowheels only have one axis, an electronic stability control system was programmed. It basically features a P-controller (Proportional Controller), who is programmed to get the passenger cabin of the monowheel horizontally. Therefore, the motors actively worke agains wiggling of the monowheel. This is possible, because the technic hub has a build-in gyro sensor, which can easily be read out and serves as input for the controller. When accelerating the monowheel, there is no direct speed command sent to the motors, but instead, the P-controller is given a different input value. (e.g. to controll the cabin to -10° tillted position) This then makes to monowheel to move forward. Because of this additional stability control, it was not possible to use a Buwizz, as they dont offer programming capabilities. Last picture: Monowheel with equipped snow-spikes...
