The disclosed computer-implemented method may include a magnetic insertable lock component with a magnet-sensing lock housing. By using a magnet within a pin and a magnetic field sensor within the lock housing, the apparatus may accurately detect the state of the lock. In some embodiments, the apparatus may determine the pin is inserted fully into the lock, the pin is inserted partially into the lock, the pin is not inserted in the lock, and/or that a foreign object that is not the pin is inserted into the lock. By using a magnet within the pin to track the state of the lock, the apparatus may improve both the user experience and the security of the lock. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

An open-cabin vehicle is provided that makes it possible to enjoy the convenience provided by electronic devices while suppressing electric power consumption and also suppressing a reduction in the convenience of the open-cabin vehicle. An identification signal transmission unit inside an electric power control apparatus of an open-cabin vehicle intermittently transmits an identification signal (ID). A response signal reception unit receives a response signal (RE) that is transmitted from a portable terminal in response to the identification signal (ID) without any operation by a rider on the portable terminal or the open-cabin vehicle. When the response signal reception unit receives the response signal (RE), a command unit commands current conduction in a first electric power supply circuit and does not command current conduction in a second electric power supply circuit.

A control system for interconnecting an electric bike and an electronic lock includes a bike control device, a motor, an electronic lock, and a wireless operation device. The bike control device has a motor control unit connected to the motor. The electronic lock includes a bike lock control device and an electric locking device. The bike lock control device can receive an operation signal from the wireless operation device to determine whether the wireless operation device is allowed to operate. After the operation is allowed, the electric locking device can be locked, and the bike control device is notified that the motor control unit commands the motor not to output auxiliary power; or the electric locking device can be unlocked, and the bike control device is notified that the motor control unit commands the motor to output auxiliary power. Through the control system, the motor cannot drive the electric bike if the electric locking device is broken.

An electric bicycle has an electric motor and an electric energy store for supplying energy to the electric motor. Accordingly, the bicycle has a first controller coupled to the electric motor and is configured to store a first keycode. The bicycle has a second controller coupled to the energy store and is configured to store a second keycode. The controllers are connected or can be connected to a data transmission system, which is a bus. The first and second controllers are configured such that at least one specified controller of the controllers receives the keycode of the other controller. The specified controller is configured to determine whether its keycode matches the received keycode of the other controller using specified criteria. An immobilizer for an electric bicycle can be formed from these components.

The present disclosure provides a method for controlling an electric scooter and electric scooter, wherein the method comprises: a first target operation performed on the electric scooter is detected in a case that the electric scooter is unlocked by using a target account; the electric scooter is set to be in a temporarily locked state in response to the first target operation, wherein the electric scooter in the temporarily locked state is set to allow to be unlocked only by the target account within a target duration after detecting the first target operation the electric scooter in the temporarily locked state is unlocked in a case that a second target operation performed on the electric scooter is detected within the target duration. The present disclosure solves the problem existed in the method for controlling an electric scooter in the related art that the electric scooter is easily used by others when the electric scooter is temporarily stopped using.
