Abstract
Since the birth of mankind, humans have been looking forward on making things easier, with regard to their travelling or their work, hence anything that is essential for a general lifestyle. Human is progressing in technology every second that passes by, they are always found in a desire to get best out of what they have been provided with. We have been seeing the evolution from stone-age to the modern world.
Transportation idea had developed with the advent of wheel. Carts pulled/driven by animals were the first traffic. Then as per advanced equipment and machinery were invented, engine was made. Now the rush of most modern and radical vehicles can be seen on the roads worldwide. Travelling throughout the world is no longer an issue now, the fastest airplanes, electric trains, robust cars have made it all the way easier. The concern today is the fuel, power and energy required to drive these automobiles.
For our Final Year Project, we have come up with a totally new idea of passage (travelling) that is RC Hover Board which uses electrical power as fuel. 1800mAH LiPo battery is being used as a power source. The stability and balancing of the Hover Board was a challenging task until we did not know about the KK board (Flight Controller) and once we got familiar with that, desired task was achieved. RC transmitter is used to govern all the maneuvers of the hover board from the range of about 50 to 60 feet.
This Hover Board can be used as a prototype to implement a similar type aircraft on a larger scale to make possible the idea of single man air travelling at cheaper rates and obviously it would be more than just fun.
The second and third modules of this project are Automated Parking and Wireless Charging, wherein the Hover-Board was supposed to land on a specific platform but due to some technical difficulties it could not happen but in near future it will be made possible and the parking train will take it near to the wireless charging coil. Wireless charging facility has been installed in the wall (hanger) using magnetic induction, which we have named as an “Opened up Transformer Idea”.
