Abstract: A system (1) for controlling the motion of an impulsive-type human-powered vehicle (100), includes: a motor (2) associable to at least one vehicle (100) driving element, suitable for generating a total torque/driving force (T); a system (4) for storing energy to be supplied to the motor (2); a sensor (5) for detecting the vehicle (100) longitudinal speed (v); a module (7) for controlling a main torque/driving force (T?) of the motor (2) based on at least the signal representative of the vehicle (100) longitudinal speed (v); a module (9) for determining the vehicle longitudinal acceleration (Ax); a module (8) for estimating the presence or absence of a thrust (Fk) of the user on the vehicle (100); an activation signal when it is estimated the absence of the thrust (Fk) of the user: a deactivation signal when it is estimated the presence of the thrust (Fk) of the user.
