A lot have been asking how does a hoverboard work; and these are an in-depth explanation how it's move.

Name of presentation Main Components of Hoverboards and How It’s Move
Main Components of Hoverboards • A steel frame with a central pivot • A logic board • Two gyroscopes • Two infrared sensors • Two electric motors • (located inside the wheels) • Two tilt/speed sensors • (located inside the wheels) • Charging port • Power switch • A battery pack • LED lights • Pressure pads • A plastic shell
HOW DOES A HOVERBOARD MOVE? * THE WHEEL SENSOR The wheels of the hoverboard house the electric motors themselves. They also contain a tilt and speed sensor. This detects the rpm (revolutions per minute) of the individual wheel, and sends it to the gyroscope and speed control boards, located inside the main body, right next to the wheels.
HOW DOES A HOVERBOARD MOVE? * GYROSCOPE / SPEED CONTROL BOARDS The gyroscope and speed control boards receive the rpms and tilt information from the sensor inside the wheels, and they, in turn, send it to the main logic board.

HOW DOES A HOVERBOARD MOVE? * THE BATTERY PACK The battery pack is what keeps your board going. There are different packs out there, but the vast majority of them are 36V 4400mAH battery packs.
HOW DOES A HOVERBOARD DETECT YOUR MOVEMENT? * The Pressure Pads Sit on two switches each. When you lean forward, the front switch is pushed down, and a little plastic “wall” slides in-between an infrared LED and an infrared sensor. As long as the sensor detects the light, the logic board will “tell” the motors to be still. But when the light is interrupted (because of the switch being pushed down by your weight), the board tells the motor to spin in a particular direction.

HOW DOES A SELF BALANCING SCOOTER BALANCE? * Tilt Sensors in the Wheels The tilt sensors in the wheels tell the gyroscopes how far forward you’re leaning. The gyroscopes relay this information to the logic board. The more you’re leaning forward, the faster the logic board tells the motors to spin, to sort of “catch up” with your center of gravity. It’s this simple (yet very clever) mechanism which allows you to control the cruising speed of the scooter with your weight.
