Abstract
A micromobility device can include a propulsion system and a control system communicably coupled to the propulsion system. The control system can detect a user device within a threshold distance of the micromobility device, determine, based on the user device, an operating mode of the propulsion system, receive, via a throttle, a user input to the throttle, modify a signal associated with the user input to the throttle based on the operating mode, and cause the propulsion system to adjust an operating condition of the propulsion system based on the modified signal.
Claims21
A micromobility device, comprising:
- a propulsion system;
- and
- a control system communicably coupled to the propulsion system, the control system configured to:
- detect a user device within a threshold distance of the micromobility device;
- determine, based on the user device, an operating mode of the propulsion system;
- receive, via a throttle, a user input to the throttle;
- modify a signal associated with the user input to the throttle based on the operating mode;
- and
- cause the propulsion system to adjust an operating condition of the propulsion system based on the modified signal.
A control system for a micromobility device, comprising:
- one or more processors configured to:
- detect a user device within a threshold distance of the micromobility device;
- determine, based on the user device, an operating mode of a propulsion system of the micromobility device;
- receive, via a throttle of the micromobility device, a user input to the throttle;
- modify a signal associated with the user input to the throttle based on the operating mode;
- and
- cause the propulsion system to adjust an operating condition of the propulsion system based on the modified signal.
A method, comprising:
- detecting, by a control system of a micromobility device, a user device within a threshold distance of the micromobility device;
- determining, by the control system, based on the user device, an operating mode of a propulsion system of the micromobility device;
- receiving, by the control system, via a throttle of the micromobility device, a user input to the throttle;
- modifying, by the control system, a signal associated with the user input to the throttle based on the operating mode;
- and
- causing, by the control system, the propulsion system to adjust an operating condition of the propulsion system based on the modified signal.
