  • WHEEL MOVEMENT TRIGGER FOR BATTERY WAKE-UP SYSTEMS AND METHODS
    Publication number: 20240100989
    Abstract: A micromobility transit vehicle may include a wheel, a dynamo, a control module, and a battery. The dynamo may be associated with the wheel and configured to transmit a first signal based at least on a detection of one or more movements of the wheel that meets or exceeds a threshold movement of the wheel. The control module may be configured to receive the first signal transmitted by the dynamo. The control module may be configured to transmit a second signal upon receiving the first signal from the dynamo. The battery may be configured to receive the second signal transmitted by the control module. The second signal may cause the battery to wake from a battery-off state to a battery-on state.
