2. Introduction
2.1 Illustration about vehicle types
M1 is an intelligent robot researched and
developed by M1, which made the usage of
principle of mobile equilibrium for controlling of
moving forward, backward and stop. With the
tilting of your body, you can control its speed and
direction freely.M1 is very flexible, safe and
portable. Broaden your horizon and give you
an incredible driving experience.
M1has been widely used in various aspects of
work and live , such as personal transportation,
working patrol, indoor venues, tourism
entertainment and car carrying and so on.
2.2 Serial Number
The serial number of M1 is unique and exclusive.
Serial number is important for quality tracing, insurance claim, claim of missing.
The way to get the serial number
Acquiring the serial number at the outer box of the package.
The serial number consists of eleven number or letter in total
Record it and keep it well
2.3 How M1 works
M1 consists of main body, wheels, electric drive system, etc. The wheels are located on the both sides of the main body. The
power source ,the control circuit ,drive circuit ,sensor and control switch are assembled inside the main body .The speed
sensor and angle sensor are connected by swing joint. They work together to transmit information to the control circuit
regarding to the intersection inclined angle of the wheels and the main body. Therefore, the above actions and the software
inside calculate the torque and the running speed so that M1 can be balanced itself.
Regarding to the car handlebar, when you lean it to your right gently, it turns right; when you lean it to your left, it turns left. And
when you make it stands vertically, it will keep going straight
We suggest that all users should lean their body right or left when he/she leans the handlebar respectively. Because the inertial
dynamic system inside can only control the direction of forward and backward instead of right and left. Therefore, to avoid
centrifugal forces in turning and increase the security of riding M1, we recommend that all users should take the above advice
seriously.
