Presented are adaptive propulsion assist systems and control logic for manually-powered vehicles, methods for making/using such systems, and intelligent electric scooters with distributed sensing and control-loop feedback for adaptive e-assist operations. A method for regulating a propulsion assist system of a manually-powered vehicle includes a vehicle controller detecting a user contacting the vehicle's handlebar, responsively receiving sensor signals indicative of a user-applied force to the handlebar, and then determining a net user-applied force based on the handlebar force and user-generated forces applied to the scooter deck. The vehicle controller also receives sensor signals indicative of the vehicle's current acceleration, and determines therefrom a pitch angle of the surface on which the vehicle moves. Responsive to the net force being greater than zero and the pitch angle being greater than a calibrated threshold angle, the controller commands the traction motor to increase motor torque output by a calibrated force gain increment.

Controlling a maximum vehicle speed for an industrial vehicle includes determining, by a processor of the industrial vehicle, a torque applied to the traction wheel of the industrial vehicle; converting the torque to an equivalent force value; and determining an acceleration of the industrial vehicle while the torque is applied to the traction wheel. Additional steps include calculating a load being moved by the industrial vehicle, based at least in part on the acceleration and the equivalent force value; and controlling the maximum speed of the industrial vehicle based on the calculated load being moved by the industrial vehicle.

A motor controller according to the present disclosure obtains the rotational speed determination signal of the motor through the microprocessor and the rotational speed collector, and then outputs the first control signal by the first logic operation circuit based on the speed of the motor, to make the driving circuit control the main circuit to work normally or enter the safety state. In addition, the motor controller generates and outputs the second shutoff signal by the monitoring chip based on the working state or the output instruction of the microprocessor, and then outputs the second control signal by the second logic operation circuit based on the second shutoff signal and whether the DC bus voltage of the main circuit is in an overvoltage state, to make the driving circuit control the main circuit to stop receiving the first control signal and enter the safety state.

A recording unit records an installation position of a ground installation object and an installation identifier of the ground installation object for each of a plurality of the ground installation objects installed beside a track on which a vehicle of a track transport system mounted with an external sensor travels; an installation object recognition unit specifies the installation identifier from external sensor information including information detected by the external sensor and recognizes the ground installation object corresponding to the installation identifier by referring to the recording unit; and a detection distance calculation unit calculates a detection distance of the external sensor. The detection distance calculation unit calculates the detection distance of the external sensor from a self-position of the vehicle at which the ground installation object is recognized and the installation position of the ground installation object recognized by the installation object recognition unit.

Systems and methods are provided herein for controlling the speed on each wheel of a vehicle, possibly operating a vehicle in a speed control mode. In response to receiving input to engage speed control mode and receiving an accelerator pedal input, the system determines a target wheel speed based on the accelerator pedal input, monitors wheel speed of each of a plurality of wheels and determines, for each monitored wheel, a difference based on the monitored wheel speed and the target wheel speed. A torque is provided to each of the plurality of wheels based on the respective difference to achieve the target wheel speed.

A control system for an electrified powertrain of a battery electric vehicle (BEV) includes an accelerator pedal and a controller configured to determine maximum and minimum values for driver pedal position based on a first position of the accelerator pedal indicative of a first driver pedal position, determine whether the accelerator pedal position remains constant relative to the first position, when the accelerator pedal position does not remain constant and moves to a second position indicative of a second driver pedal position, detect that driver pedal position is increasing when the second driver pedal position is greater than the first minimum value and setting the first maximum value to the second driver pedal position and detect decreasing driver pedal position when the second driver pedal position is less than the first maximum value and setting the minimum value to the second driver pedal position.

The bike's crank speed and crank position are sensed via a micro controller, torque sensor, gyro and accelerator disposed on the bike's crank. External power and control signals can be passed to and from the crank micro controller and the e-bike controller through a throttle connector of the e-bike controller via slip rings around the crank hub with and with pogo pin connectors connected to the respective slip rings. Throttle data can also be provided to the e-bike controller wirelessly via a wireless dongle coupled to the throttle connector of e-bike controller.
