Conclusion

This was my first time developing an “electric vehicle” and I’m pleased with how the Arduino-based DIY electric skateboard came together. I’ll continue developing the skateboard’s hardware and software to further explore innovations in electronics and control software for electric vehicles.

The Arduino is a very handy microcontroller for such a project because it easily interfaces with external electronics and because the software loop it runs can be readily modified and adapted to improve the project. It was my first time developing an “electric vehicle” and I’m pleased with how the Arduino-based electric skateboard came together.

In future iterations of this DIY electric skateboard, I hope to continue developing the control software for the skateboard, which is at this point fairly simple, to improve its handling, efficiency, and overall usability.  One such idea I currently have for such improvements is implementing closed-loop control through the use of encoders or similar sensors to make start-ups and speed changes while driving smoother.  I would also like to add readouts on the longboard to display the battery percentage and button controls to allow the rider to tweak aspects such as acceleration, braking, and max speed.  Stay tuned for further developments on this project, and feel free to share your improvements too!
