The principle of self balancing scooter is based on the basic principle of "dynamic stability", which is

precision gyroscope, through the precision and accuracy of the central
microprocessor. This calculates the appropriate command to drive the motor to achieve the
balancing effect. As X62 is a new type of personal transporter, it is difficult to define the type of the
traditional classification; some think X62 should be a wheeled version of the unicycle, others think it
is a kind of dynamic scooter. However, it is different from the traditional uni-axial wheel or bi-axial
wheel scooter, and in some formal occasions (such as the official rules of the road), X62 scooter could

The X62 has two wheels, the width of the ordinary adult shoulder
width, and weighs approximately 40kg. It is powered by 2 lithium ion
batteries. When riding, it does not need brakes or a throttle lever;
when the rider leans forward, the scooter goes forward and when the
rider's body stands straight - it stops.
