Analysis of the Relationship Between Operational Mastery Process and Balance Capability in Daily Life for Unstable Personal Vehicles

Abstract

This research aims to analyze a relation between balance ability in daily life and process of attaining a maneuvering skill for unstable vehicles such as unicycle, Segway and balance board. For the analysis, the subjects have carried out the balance ability test on the flat ground and the holding balance experiment on the balance board. As a result, the balance ability on a balance board correlated with the static balance ability. Hence, a model, which integrated human with balance board, has been derived in order to analyze relation between balance ability of both legs and control performance. In conclusion, the model which integrated human with balance board, have been stabilized by control system design.
