An guidance system of an electric mobility vehicle includes a registration section in which replacement places of replacement batteries for the electric mobility vehicle are registered, an estimation section that estimates a possible travel distance of the electric mobility vehicle from a battery remaining capacity of the electric mobility vehicle, and a display section that displays replacement places within a range of the estimated possible travel distance of the electric mobility vehicle among the replacement places of the replacement batteries registered in the registration section on map information.

Various systems and methods associated with protecting a rider of an electric bicycle from hazards while riding their bicycle are described. In some embodiments, the systems and methods enhance the safety of the rider in response current detected conditions surrounding the rider, such as conditions associated with the route or path traveled by the rider, other vehicles within the route or path traveled by the rider, potential hazards within the route or path traveled by the rider, environmental conditions through which the rider is traveling, and so on.

In one embodiment, an apparatus for docking vehicles includes a housing structure comprising two side portions and a top portion connecting the two side portions, the two side portions and the top portion forming a cavity for receiving a portion of a vehicle, an electrically-powered locking assembly, carried by the housing structure, for securing the housing structure to the vehicle in response to the portion of the vehicle being received by the cavity of the housing structure, an electrically-powered communication device, coupled to the housing structure, for enabling data communication over a network, and a solar panel, carried by an external surface of one of the side portions of the housing structure, for independently converting light received by the solar panel into electrical energy.

A vehicle controller for a vehicle including a drive source including an electric motor includes: a sense-of-beating producer configured to acquire a total required torque which is a required torque of the entire vehicle and configured to derive a total target torque corresponding to the total required torque as applied to a predetermined engine combustion cycle; and a target motor torque deriver configured to, based on the total target torque, derive a target motor torque for torque control of the electric motor. The vehicle controller controls the electric motor based on the target motor torque.

The disclosure relates to an intelligent transportation field. A vehicle-mounted terminal, a charging pile, an electric bicycle, and a rental system and a rental method of the electric bicycle are described. The vehicle-mounted terminal for the electric bicycle comprises: a receiver configured to receive a rental request; and a controller configured to: acquire the performance state of an electric bicycle targeted by the rental request, in response to the rental request; communicate with a server to authenticate the validity of the renter, if the acquired performance state meets preset rental criteria; and issue an unlocking instruction signal to a charging pile to unlock the electric bicycle, if a successful authentication message is received from the server. The vehicle-mounted terminal communicates with the server, so that the back-end server can obtain the service condition of the rented bicycle in real time, and can monitor and manage the bicycle.

Motor control systems and methods for micromobility transit vehicles are provided. A micromobility transit vehicle may include an electric motor configured to drive a rotation of a wheel. The electric motor may include a plurality of windings and a plurality of switching circuits. The switching circuits may be configured to selectively direct current from a power supply through the windings to generate a torque by the electric motor to drive the rotation of the wheel in response to associated control signals. The switching circuits may be configured to passively bypass the windings in response to an interruption of the control signals. Depletion of the power supply may result in the interruption of the control signals.

A battery switching system is provided for battery operation. The battery switching system includes at least one first battery device and one second battery device, and a battery switch device. The first battery device and the second battery device have different voltages. The battery switch device has an accommodating space to accommodate the first battery device and the second battery device. When the battery switch device is in a charge mode, the battery switch device charges the first battery device and second battery device of lower voltage to match the voltage of the other of the first battery device and second battery device of higher voltage before simultaneously charging both the first battery device and second battery device. When the battery switch device is in a power mode, the battery switch device drains the first battery device and second battery device of high voltage to match the voltage of the other of the first battery device and second battery device of lower voltage before simultaneously draining both the first battery device and second battery device.

A vehicle includes an upper frame, a lower frame, a front frame, a rear frame, a pair of rear wheels, a drive motor to drive the pair of rear wheels, a battery supported by the upper frame and the lower frame to supply electric power to the drive motor, a straddled seat at a higher position than the drive motor, and a bar handle at a higher position than the straddled seat. The battery includes a battery lower portion and a battery upper portion. The battery upper portion includes a projection that overhangs in at least a horizontal direction with respect to the battery lower portion. At least a portion of the drive motor is below or directly below the projection.

A bicycle display is provided that allows the user to recognize the selected operation mode. The bicycle display includes a display screen configured to display information corresponding to a first operation mode and a second operation mode of a bicycle component that is selectable between at least the first operation mode and the second operation mode in accordance with operation of an operation unit. The display screen includes a switching region switched between a first display state, which shows the switching region in a first color in a state where the first operation mode is selected, and a second display state, which shows the switching region in a second color in a state where the second operation mode is selected.
