Patent number: 9808705Abstract: Motorized skating systems and methods for controlling the systems are disclosed. One exemplary system may include a primary skate and a secondary skate. The primary skate may include a sensor configured to detect a tilting signal. The primary skate may also include a first processor. The processor may be configured to determine a first control signal for moving the primary skate based on the tilting signal and determine a motion signal for moving the secondary skate based on the first control signal. The primary skate may further include a first communication interface configured to send the motion signal to the secondary skate. The secondary skate may include a second communication interface configured to receive the motion signal from the first communication interface. The secondary skate may also include a second processor configured to determine a second control signal for moving the secondary skate based on the received motion signal.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2015Date of Patent: November 7, 2017Assignee: ACTON, INC.Inventors: Peter Treadway, Janelle Wang Treadway, Hang Zheng

Patent number: 9764218Abstract: The disclosed embodiments are directed to a transportation device, such as a skate. The transportation device may include a frame configured to support at least a portion of a user, and a support system configured to support the frame above the ground. The support system may include a first wheel connected to the frame, a second wheel connected to the frame, and a suspension system connected to the frame and positioned between the first and second wheel. The suspension system may include a rear wheel pivotally connected to a first portion of the frame, and a shock absorber connected between the rear wheel and a second portion of the frame. The shock absorber may be configured to dampen movement by the rear wheel with respect to the first portion of the frame.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2016Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Assignee: ACTON, INC.Inventors: Peter Treadway, Janelle Wang Treadway, Kefan Hu
