DYNAMIC STABILIZATION SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR AN RC VEHICLE

摘要

Systems and methods for stabilizing the steering and throttle of a radio-controlled (RC) vehicle are described herein. More specifically, sensors and circuitry are configured to control the wheel speed and wheel direction of a RC vehicle based on rotational information. In operation, one or more sensors may be configured to receive angular rotational information associated with a rotation of the RC vehicle. The rotational information may define a rotation of the RC vehicle around one or more axes of the RC vehicle. The circuitry may be configured to receive the angular rotation information associated with the rotation of the RC vehicle from the one or more sensors, and control a wheel speed and/or a wheel direction of at least one wheel of the RC vehicle based at least in part on (i) command data received from a controller associated with the RC vehicle and (ii) the received angular rotation information.

1. A radio-controlled (RC) vehicle comprising:
an inertial measurement unit comprising:
one or more accelerometers configured to output angular acceleration data associated with acceleration of the RC vehicle about one or more axes; andone or more angular rate sensors configured to output angular rotation data associated with rotation of the RC vehicle about the one or more axes; and a receiver configured to:
receive the angular acceleration data and the angular rotation data from the inertial measurement unit;receive command data from a controller associated with the RC vehicle, wherein the command data includes steering data and throttle data; andin response to receiving (i) the command data, (ii) the angular acceleration data, and (iii) the angular rotation data, control a wheel direction of at least one wheel of the RC vehicle.
