The E-Solex project aims to enhance the functionality and safety of the vehicle through improved data acquisition and alert systems for riders. It focuses on sustainable development by promoting eco-friendly transportation and reducing accidents while maintaining cost-effectiveness. The project faced challenges due to equipment availability but successfully implemented alternative solutions to meet its objectives.

Project Review – E-Solex

Presented by Axel Joachim (student n°3)


Clément Petiot and Enzo Bourquenot Project Partners
Table of Contents

• Issues
• How does this project respond to the
problem of sustainable development ?
• Technical solution
• Conclusion
General issue
• How to improve the functionality and security of E-Solex in order to
make this product more modern, competitive and secure ?

Individual issue
• How do I acquire the data that characterizes the movement, the lateral
distance of a vehicle and warn the rider in case of side danger ?
This will require the mesure of instant speed, average speed and distance traveled

Set up the lateral detection of an overtaking vehicle

Warn the biker by an audible and visual signal in case of overtaking too tight
How does this project respond to the
problem of sustainable development ?
Mobility with less effort, facilitate movement
and parking and improve rider safety

Economical and environmentally


friendly means of transport

Mobility and improved product at a lower cost to make


the product more competitive and reduce accidents
Purchase order with justification
1. Arduino Uno card to manage the different sensors and components simply with the programming software
Grove Base Shield plugged provided and all the documentation that is available in open sources (but we could as well have chosen a
into an Arduino Uno Raspberry Pi card, however more expensive).
2. Breadboard to be able to test our components and order our assembly (we can also test the voltage of the current
flowing through each component).
3. Connection cables added to our order form.
Grove Buzzer
4. Step-down voltage regulator from 36V to 12V necessary in order to reproduce the function of the regulator at the
battery outlet of the electrical diagram of the E-Solex.
5. Grove Base Shield module which is an interface card for easy and seamless connection of Grove sensors on our
Arduino compatible board.
6. Grove "6DOF" speed sensor with 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope that communicates via the I2C bus
(allows you to calculate speeds and distance traveled). = To answer our issue n ° 1
Grove 6DOF (We also could have chosen an angular speed sensor in our order form for this measurement, but it would have
speed sensor been more expensive and more difficult to use because it is not in Grove.)
7. Grove Ultrasonic rangefinder which allows distance measurements of up to 4m which respects our « CDCF »
because we must be able to be alerted of the vehicle which is over 1.5m from the motorcyclist (we could have
chosen a laser sensor but this component would have been more expensive). = To answer our issue n ° 2
8. Grove Buzzer module of 85dB which will serve as an audible overtaking alert too tight for the motorcyclist
Grove Ultrasonic (knowing that the sound volume on urban roads is around 75dB, the motorcyclist will be able to hear its alert). = To
rangefinder answer our issue n ° 3
9. Red LED which reproduces the overshoot alert signal too tight for the motorcyclist on our assembly on a reduced
scale which will require less power in watts for the Arduino than a larger headlight. = To answer our issue n ° 3

Red LED
The first restriction of the « CDCF » is respected with a total price of the order form for the entire project at €237.18
including VAT for a maximum budget of €250, on 3 online stores which are Amazon.fr, Conrad.fr and GoTronic.fr.

Conclusion
• For the measurement of the speeds and the distance, the material supplied was not that
requested (Grove), therefore the measurement of the speed of the wheel was done by
attaching a magnet to the radius of the rear wheel at 17cm from away from the center of
this one and by placing on a fixed point of the E-Solex the Hall sensor ST054 near the
field of passage of the magnet.
• The Grove Ultrasonic rangefinder was also not provided to me, but it was only the wiring
that changed for the HC-SR04 module.
• Due to the Containment I could not get to the oscilloscope measurement in my High
School for LED. For the measurement of the sound signal at home I was able to use an
application on my Smartphone.
• Finally, the final program works and makes it possible to measure the values requested
by the CDCF and to restore the audio and visual signals to the pilot of the E-Solex if a
vehicle overtaking sideways approaches 1m50 or less from the E-Solex.
• Due to the Containment some aspects of the Project cannot be treated and others had
to be deepened at home or worked only at home: such as all the Research and
Development part on the use of the Hall sensor ST054 (thirty hours).
• In addition, certain additional constraints were imposed on me such as the use of
equipment different from that which it was planned to use initially, but it was a good
challenge ! (applies to the HC-SR04 Ultrasonic rangefinder and ST054 Hall sensor).
